Book excerpt: The Global Positioning System is a satellite-based radio-navigation system established for military uses, which as a byproduct has been made available to the civilian community. The system can be used to achieve position accuracies ranging from 100 meters down to a few millimeters, depending on the equipment used and procedures followed. It is thus important for system users to understand what techniques are required to achieve desired accuracies with minimal cost and complexity. These guidelines contain four main parts geared toward achieving that objectives. They explain the fundamentals of global positioning, describe positioning techniques, and discuss procedures for application of the system. General considerations and procedures common to almost any positioning project are presented, along with special considerations which must be made when determining elevations. The appendices include a glossary and a guide to information sources.
