Abstract
The measurement data fairing method includes: determining an interval in which a geometrical element is to be fitted to measurement data; extracting, from the data, interval measurement data of the fitting interval and robustly fitting the element; removing, on the basis of a result of the robust fitting, outlier from the interval measurement data; computing a statistic of a residual of the interval measurement data after the outlier removing step; and removing, as invalid data, measurement data that exceeds a predetermined limit value of the statistic of the residual from the interval measurement data after the outlier removing step on the basis of the statistic of the residual computed in the computing step.
