And my demo code is not complete...
Picky point: There are lots of engines that compute full 3D weights
from the full covariance matrix. *BUT* there aren't many that are
non-commercial, and therefore there are not many publicly availiable.
There are also any number of books (for surveyors) that cover the
subject in almost painfull detail. I have some bibliography at:

The one I've found clearest is "Analysis and Adjustment of Survey
Measurements" by Mikhail and Gracie.
