The most important factor in getting accurate predictions of Earth orientation parameters (EOP) is choosing suitable input data. Also, we must choose a proper statistical model for the noise in these data. The weights of the data are determined on the basis of these models. Finally, we must determine suitable values of parameters in the computation of EOP predictions.
