Taylor-series estimation gives a least-sum-squared-error solution to a set of simultaneous
linearized algebraic equations. This method is useful in solving multimeasurement mixed-
mode position-location problems typical of many navigational applications. While
convergence is not proved, examples show that most problems do converge to the correct
solution from reasonable initial guesses. The method also provides the statistical spread of
the solution errors.
