Notes on volumetric localization 2010-08-07 mM1 The measured bottom elevation (9245) exceeds the top (9136), which is impossible. Examinations of the q-lots show, that the highest top is 9261 (q73), while the lowest bottom is 9250 (q68). Therefore I conclude, that both of the elevations can not be right. The top measurement must be about 9261, while the bottom has to be at least lower than 9250. [Input: U807MM1.j]
