I would like to define for a client the accuracy that can be expected from a static GNSS survey. Would it be sufficient to define in terms of Error Ellipses at 95% CI and would it be wise to include equipment specifications also? My errors ellipses from Survnet are usually around 0.005 major & minor and 0.020 elevation.

Just curious as to how others define the accuracy achievable.

Use the manufacturer's spec sheet:

Here is the sheet for the R10

You have to know the question before you provide the answer.

Absolute or relative positions?

Environment?

Time constraints?

Density and configuration of network?

The list goes on....

I think a reasonable expectation of accuracy could be stated with the caveats above.

Not much good without accuracy as well. You can precisely hit the wrong point many times.
