Accuracy Statements about the Geoid are DANGEROUS> Remember that the "Geoid Model" is theory. It's commonly used in professional practice, just be...
Shouldn't you do the precision testing to weight your observations, then report the accuracy of your survey based on the results of your least squares...
Thanks. Star*Net input files don't need to have the data in any particular fixed place on the line. It just has to have the correct tag and be in the ...
LSA files only. I use Excel and Notepad to add the Star*Net data tags to the beginning of the lines and do some minor re-formatting. I do the same to ...
I had to reluctantly give up using WinCMM for least squares adjustments when we made the move to Windows 7. The main program still works, but many of ...

I believe RTKlib uses TEQC for rinex manipulation and QC, but the windows interface is nice. I use the RTKpost part for baseline processing. RTKplot s...

If your survey does not meet the Relative Positional Precision needed to pass the accuracy standards, you just need to state what accuracy (in distanc...
Thanks for taking the time to explain it so clearly. It never would have occurred to me to make vectors out of it like that. I can think of a few inst...
Question:When analyzing the relative positional precision of points on your survey, do you include the six weighted coordinates as observations? I mig...

I have no idea, but why don't you contact MicroSurvey? They have always been very helpful to me.
I had the same problem, but sadly don't remember how I solved it. Try making sure your defined sub-grid lies entirely within the grid files you downlo...
