NAVSTAR Global Positioning System Surveying

Published 1 January 2000

This volume provides technical specifications and procedural guidance for surveying with the NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS). Intended as a comprehensive reference guide for differential carrier phase GPS surveying, it details static and kinematic survey methods, GPS data reduction, post-processing, and adjustment methods. Its 12 chapters examine NAVSTAR GPS operational theory, GPS applications, absolute positioning, relative positioning, survey equipment, GPS control and field surveys, post-processing data, and contracted GPS survey costs. ""NAVSTAR Global Positioning System Surveying"" will be of use to any engineering, topographic, or construction surveyor performing surveys for civil works and military construction projects.
