Popis: In order to comply with the recommendations of the new mining code, as well as to facilitate data acquisition and exchange, and to guarantee the reliability of these data, the Chemical Industries of Senegal (named ICS) have decided to switch from their local terrestrial reference system to the Senegalese terrestrial reference system created in 2004 and called RRS04. This move allows ICS to take advantage of new measurement techniques such as GNSS and a more global terrestrial reference system. A combination of geodesy with the least squares method was implemented for the resolution of the problem and the optimization of the solution. For this purpose, a GNSS observation campaign was carried out on selected points. The raw data obtained were processed with the Leica Infinity 3.0 software before being used in our calculations for the estimation of the parameters of this passage which has many stakes for the ICS. The obtained results were then presented, applied before being checked and validated.
