A kinematic analysis program for deformation monitoring

This paper introduces a Fortran program called KINDEF for 3D deformation detection via geodetic methods, and describes theory and procedure of it. KINDEF is a kinematic deformation analysis program that uses Kalman-filter technique and performs 3D statistical analysis to inspect the significance of geodetic network point displacements, velocities and acceleration of displacements coming from three repeated GPS surveys of the same network. KINDEF uses Kinematic Single Point Model that is one of the kinematic models. Information about theory and an application of it were given in the article 1
