                    the group of parametrs introduced. (Space 
                    will not be allocated for them in GEODYN).

  NOTES:                                                                        

     [1] Specify up to three (3) dimensions. Although this option is not
         required in order to solve for parameters in a 3-D space or solve
         for parameters of different significance (C and S coefficients for
         example) it is helpful for EMATS and other types of labeling. Also
         parameters with the same index will be grouped together, facilitating
         that way the formation of partials.
                                                                                
                                                                                
     [2] Requires the presence of the FANTIM option.

                                                                                
     [3] This option provides the necessary allocation and links for
         parameterizaton.  In order to use this option, the user must contact
         a GEODYN programmer for further additions of modeling and partials
         code.
