4. So Can We Use it?
Interconnections make for a stronger network, but Brute Force can't be used with them. Although the approach worked for the network in Figure B-2, the adjustment was actually two separate adjustments since neither point influenced the other.
Surveyors typically include redundant observations connecting the unknown points, whether a simple one dimension leveling network or two- and three-dimension surveys. Brute Force is too limited to be applied. A more systematic LS adjustment method allowing interconnected observations is needed.
