GrafnavI purchased Grafnav about 12 years ago specifically to process airborne GPS data (i.e. trajectories). Worked great. At the time, I also tried i...
I think Trimble is shooting itself in the foot. This is going to alienate some people who may never go back. And it just encourages the Trimble basher...
We do about 2 or 3 hydro projects a year. I had previously been using a syqwest hydrobox, with frequent problems with getting the unit to connect, the...
Wow-I just tried it with data from today. This really sucks. I am not totally ready for TBC, and I don't like being forced into it. It is not a moneta...
The 1/5/1980 is week zero. This happens when the week number is corrupted or missing. I think it strange that the number of seconds since the beginnin...

I agree that the rock is the highest point-not the snow cap. But, as they sort of alluded to in the article, we measure mountains as heights above "se...
I believe it was F Henry Sipes (WV LS #1) whom I met many years ago who advocated using a magnetic compass to retrace a survey that had originally bee...
I took my wife and daughter (and her friend). We turned it into a vacation, at least for them. I did go to Sea World one day, and we went out each nig...
