Confidence limit
The confidence limit is based on the determination of the mean deviation between calculation and measurement for a number of data points for comparable situations, and the standard deviation (1 SD) of the deviation, and is defined as:
= mean deviationΙ + k * SD
k=1.5 - In later publications it was suggested to use a factor of 2, instead of the value of 1.5
