Thanks for all the comments, always very much appreciated!

I think I understand what you're saying, so in your opinion the increase in accuracy from static is not worth the extra effort over RTK observations? ...

I get RTK may be a viable option for some projects but that's not the questions Im asking here. I'm asking what would your approach be when you're aft...

There's some confusion here. The blue linework are conventional ties with a total station. For sake of argument lets pretend for now it has been absol...

"Another thing to consider is that for most RTK surveys, the rover is seeing continually different conditions as the operator moves around the site, r...

Thanks for the reply! Everything you said has been echoed to me before by experienced surveyors such as yourself so I am not doubting it. Just relayin...

So I went out into the field today to start doing a bit of testing. I went out and observed two points simultaneously using a nearby rover and logged ...

It's hard enough to get a reply let alone a site visit but that would be ideal.

Thank you very much for the above replies. So, if you wanted to to tie your project into the NSRS would you; 1. Set a base control point with FPR...

A. Levelling is the very best way - in terms of accuracy - to determine relative elevations. B. As the new guy in a new place I warn you away from ta...

Yeah i just did. Project and had to achieve specs like NormanOK stated. I worked with NGS and followed the recommendations of at a minimum 2 4 hour se...

RTN based RTK is an excellent way to achieve network and local accuracies in the 0.10' range, and probably a bit better than that. But for 0.03' netwo...
