Abstract
Standard Deviation is a household statistic, a very important paramet er in the analysis of data sets and measurements. Over the decades before the advent of computers, its use is rarely seen outside the confines of scientific laboratories. But the new dawn of data age has transformed its evolution and appreciation as a valuable metric.This paper is a study of Standard Deviation and application in the field of Geomatic Engineering.
