Least Squares and Minimum Zone method are known for obtaining a datum or a continuous approximate function of measured data. This study is for a Minimum Zone algorithm for a circle, which is useful to obtain the exact roundness from the reference circle of measured data. The proposed method is compared with the Least Squares Limacon method and Chrystal-Peirce algorithm. A computational algorithm for the Minimum Zone circle is suggested and results in less roundness than the other two methods. This Minimum Zone circle method will be used for other geometrical measured data, such as plane or sphere for obtaining the exact flatness or sphericity.
