S/A was designed to preve

S/A could be reactivated at any time by the Pentagon.,Sources of GPS Error,Standard Positioning Service (SPS ): Civilian UsersSource Amount of Error Satellite clocks: 1.5 to 3.6 m

Its defined by a set of coordinates.

10、It has no name. A position represents only an approximation of the receivers true location. A position is not static. It changes constantly as the GPS receiver moves (or wanders due to random errors). A receiver must be in 2D or 3D mode (at least 3 or 4 satellites acquired) in order to provide a pos

11、ition fix. 3D mode dramatically improves position accuracy.,Waypoint,A waypoint is based on coordinates entered into a GPS receivers memory. It can be either a saved position fix, or user entered coordinates. It can be created for any remote point on earth. It must have a receiver designated code or

12、 number, or a user supplied name. Once entered and saved, a waypoint remains unchanged in the receivers memory until edited or deleted.,Planning a Navigation Route,Start,= Waypoint,How A Receiver Sees Your Route,GPS Waypoint Circle of Error,X,GPS Dilution of Precision and Its Affects On GPS Accuracy

13、,GPS Satellite Geometry,Satellite geometry can affect the quality of GPS signals and accuracy of receiver trilateration. Dilution of Precision (DOP) reflects each satellites position relative to the other satellites being accessed by a receiver. There are five distinct kinds of DOP. Position Dilutio

14、n of Precision (PDOP) is the DOP value used most commonly in GPS to determine the quality of a receivers position. Its usually up to the GPS receiver to pick satellites which provide the best position triangulation. Some GPS receivers allow DOP to be manipulated by the user.,Ideal Satellite Geometry
