GPS GEODESY AND KINEMATIC TOPOGRAPHY MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS

High accuracy commercial electronic equipment used for maritime radiolocation and land surveys are discussed, and two types of GPS (global positioning systems) receivers intended for high accuracy, real time dynamic positioning (TR5S) and geodesy or survey (NR52) are described. This paper describes the latest software that allows accurate determination of the trajectory of any mobile (land mobile, maritime mobile, or plane). The software has been tested under severe conditions, and the accuracies obtained are about 10 to 50 cm, 3-dimensional. Fast data sampling rate and a very low noise measurement are noted. Answers to the problem of temporary satellite masks have been obtained. The operational effectiveness of the software has been proved.
