1 GPS Surveying Slide 1 GPS Surveying Surveying Mapping Standalone Relative Relative Standalone Post-Processed Real-Time Static / Fast Static Kinematic Stop & Go Rapid-Static Carrier-Phase (RTK) Pseudo-Range (DGPS) Session GPS Surveying 1

2 Pseudo-Ranges (Code) Measurement measure time difference between same part of code from satellite from ground receiver Slide 3 Carrier Phase Measurement Used in high-precision survey work Can generate sub-centimeter accuracy The ~20 cm carrier is tracked by a reference receiver and a remote (user) receiver simultaneously The carrier is not subject to S/A (due to double differencing) and is a much more precise measurement than pseudo-ranges (code). Requires bookeeping of cycles ( subject to slips ): Ionospheric delay differences must be small enough to prevent full slips Requires remote receiver be within ~30km from the base From post-processed mode to Real Time Kinematic (RTK) Slide 4 Session GPS Surveying 2

3 Carrier Phase Differencing Slide 5 Ambiguity Resolution λ = First Partial Wavelength N = Integer Ambiguity Solving for the Integer Ambiguity yields centimeter precision Slide 6 Session GPS Surveying 3

4 The Integer Ambiguity λ λ = First Partial Wavelength N = Integer Ambiguity Solving for the Integer Ambiguity yields centimeter precision Slide 7 How to Resolve The Integer Ambiguity Float Integer ambiguity not resolved. Fix Integer ambiguity resolved, RTK system initialized Initialization is the process of resolving integer ambiguities. Three initialization methods: - Known Point - New Point - On-the-Fly (OTF) Slide 8 Session GPS Surveying 4

5 Results Baseline or Vector (cm precision) Azi = 212 o Dist = m OR DElev = m X = m Y = m Z = m Slide 9 ECEF Coordinate System ECEF X = m Y = m Z = m +Z Z X Y -Y +X Slide 10 Session GPS Surveying 5

6 Reference Ellipsoid a = semi-major axis b = semi-minor axis (a b) Flattening f = a H φ latitude λ longitude H ellipsoidal height b a φ WGS-84 Ellipsoid a = m b = m 1/f = Slide 11 ECEF and WGS-84 ECEF X = m Y = m Z = m +Z WGS-84 φ = 37 o N λ = 122 o W h = m h Z φ Y X b -Y +X Slide 12 Session GPS Surveying 6

7 GPS Heights vs Elevations MSL height was derived from the ellipsoidal heights using the following formula: H = h N accurate to ± 5cm Where H = Orthometric / MSL height derived from GPS/EGM96 h = Ellipsoidal (GPS) height N = Geoid height (based on MyGeoid) Slide 13 GNSS/GPS Surveying Conventional GPS Surveying Techniques (requires two or more GPS receivers) - Static Technique (min 1 hour observation, station separation km, single or dual frequency receiver) - Rapid Static Technique (min minutes, Station separation <10km, dual frequency receiver) - Kinematic Technique (normal kinematic or RTK) Modern GPS Surveying Techniques - MyRTKnet (requires only ONE GPS receiver) - VRS-RTK Technique (few minutes) Slide 14 Session GPS Surveying 7

8 GNSS/GPS Surveying Cont Network Adjustment Plan Project Assemble Equipment Slide 15 Troubleshoot Evaluate Results Process Data Perform Survey Import Data GNSS/GPS Surveying Cont Elements of the GPS survey task: Definition of the task: How many points? Accuracy required? Horizontal & Vertical? Connection to datum? Distribution of points? Resources available? etc. Slide 16 Session GPS Surveying 8

9 GNSS/GPS Surveying Cont Planning: logistical considerations, connection to control, standards & specs for GPS surveys, number of receivers/parties, site selection, observation schedule, etc. Reconnaissance: satellite visibility & availability, site conditions & access, station marking, etc. Field procedures: equipment checklist, on-site procedures. Office procedures: (Post-processing & result presentation) baseline processing, minimally constrained solutions, fitting GPS network results to geodetic control, QC, heights, etc. Slide 17 Project Area W 122 o N 37 o Slide 18 Session GPS Surveying 9
