RTK GPS, Blind Faith, Accurracy, and working in harsh environments.

Time isn’t much of a factor anymore. The geometry and multipath are different in all the solutions even though taken during the same time frame. So the agreement between them is every bit as validating at coming back a different day and time (the old way). Nate’s example seems to be in what I would call a pretty decent environment. His screenshots show a variety index of around 2.4 on every shot, along with rtpk repeated solutions in agreement that also agree with rtk. I can only dream of working in such a clean environment most days. Still, even in deepest darkest woods I see more than 6 satellites. But don’t usually get that high variety. The equation becomes pretty complex when you throw in all the signal types now available, along with all the satellites.
