Dave,
Your going to make me keep thinking about this huh!
Well there are three unknowns, time and position of observation and three LD observations. That sounds solvable. And an approximate DR of unassigned certainty; so it would be a stretch to use that to best fit the data.
We would have to require an exact match, no error, the LD data to extract a time and position. That sounds possible. How still remains on the horizon.
