Thursday 29 July

Met with Frank, looked at new longitude spreadsheet. all longitude calculations are to be finished by fortnight, but I have done 95 of 133, in the last 24 hours, leaving 38. Will hopefully be done tomorrow, so I can look over and check for basic errors. The sooner all the calcs are done, the earlier I can be writing up the thesis.

Lunars aren't going to be used as primary calculations at this stage, because it is only a final year project (honours grade) thesis, so we don't want to get too heavily bogged down in calculations.

holidays?

have checked latitude spreadsheets, and sent back to Frank for review. Also made a summary sheet of each camp with a sum or squares of residuals and non-weighted means for each calculation.

he should be sending me longitude sheets to work on, and I aim to start the introduction chapter of thesis by the end of the week
