1. A method for compensating for the output error in each of one or more navigation instruments in a system comprising a plurality of navigation instruments, the method being practiced after the system is introduced into its operating environment, the practice of the method continuing for a plurality of time periods, a time period being started and ended by events independent of the timing of method operations, the method comprising the step:

  • compensating during a present time period for the output error in each of the one or more navigation instruments as a function of temperature utilizing a present second compensation model based on measurements obtained in one or more prior time periods, a future second compensation model for use in the next time period being determined during the present time period, the future second compensation model becoming the present second compensation model at the start of the next time period.
