Download or read book GPS Positioning Guide written by Geomatics Canada and published by The Division. This book was released on 1994 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

This book was released on 2004-04-05 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only comprehensive guide to Kalman filtering and its applications to real-world GPS/INS problems Written by recognized authorities in the field, this book provides engineers, computer scientists, and others with a working familiarity with the theory and contemporary applications of Global Positioning Systems (GPS), Inertial Navigational Systems, and Kalman filters. Throughout, the focus is on solving real-world problems, with an emphasis on the effective use of state-of-the-art integration techniques for those systems, especially the application of Kalman filtering. To that end, the authors explore the various subtleties, common failures, and inherent limitations of the theory as it applies to real-world situations, and provide numerous detailed application examples and practice problems, including GPS-aided INS, modeling of gyros and accelerometers, and WAAS and LAAS. Drawing upon their many years of experience with GPS, INS, and the Kalman filter, the authors present numerous design and implementation techniques not found in other professional references, including original techniques for: * Representing the problem in a mathematical model * Analyzing the performance of the GPS sensor as a function of model parameters * Implementing the mechanization equations in numerically stable algorithms * Assessing computation requirements * Testing the validity of results * Monitoring GPS, INS, and Kalman filter performance in operation In order to enhance comprehension of the subjects covered, the authors have included software in MATLAB, demonstrating the workings of the GPS, INS, and filter algorithms. In addition to showing the Kalman filter in action, the software also demonstrates various practical aspects of finite word length arithmetic and the need for alternative algorithms to preserve result accuracy.

Download or read book The Global Positioning System and GIS Second Edition written by Michael Kennedy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-04-18 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global Positioning System and Geographical Information Systems, working in tandem, provide a powerful tool. Recent developments such as the removal of Selective Availability have not merely made these technologies more accurate but have also opened up a new seam of applications, particularly in location based services. The Global Positioning System and GIS is a clear text and guide to the use and integration of these powerful technologies, with each topic combining an overview with a step-by-step approach. This significantly revised and extended second edition now comes with a set of resources on a CD-ROM, including an instructor's guide, demonstration data and exercises. It is a straightforward introductory text for students and teachers on GIS/GPS courses as well as a practical and introductory field manual for mapping science professionals, giving basic practical guidance, particularly to the integrated use of ESRI's GIS software with Trimble's GPS hardware.
