@rj-schneider?ÿ The red flag was in the surveyors datum note which states: "NAD83 NY Western zone (Ground)" FYI, never apply scale factor to coordi...
I would contribute this is due to ignorance. Over the past 20 years I have done a lot of construction site setup for GPS machine guidance system all o...
@bigd1320?ÿ I believe we misunderstood your question because of your terminology. When using a VRS or RTN most assume you would utilize a known proje...
The OP appears to be referring specifically to the use of a VRS network to a localization. He is asking if his local coordinates will change from a lo...
Definitely need to check all settings in both recivers to ensure harmony.?ÿ At last resort replace firmware for modem and recievers.?ÿ
@brad-ott?ÿ If cell coverage is good, yes I will take a few minutes to collect coordinates with VRS or RTN. Then use this to start RTK. I will also c...
@mightymoe?ÿ During reconn of large 100 acres plus tracts I setup my base with 4 constellations in wide open sky as I can find running static and RTK...
@nate-the-surveyor I have one of those 25ft Hixon poles with bipod. There is a lot of sway up at 25ft. Works great for Wetland flag locations.
@mark-mayer?ÿ In the Adirodacks our surveys have no open fields for RTK. Plus many large tracks have no cell coverage and poor UHF radio range due to...
When surveying in dense Adirondack woods like this?ÿ43.7753456,-74.4089721 (Turn on Satellite view.) I doubt your Javad would be able to set pins wit...

2m poles with bipod or pole tripods. Never used the hold a pole devices. Verticals tolerances will be high in canopy. Also I suggest 10 second epoch r...
@bill93 Three receivers is the minimum I would suggest and ideal for setting coordinate pairs under canopy to go back with EDM for layout. Three units...
No, it will not be just a few feet difference in the coordinates. It will likely be 100's of thousands of feet different in the coordinates. This way ...
@brad-ott?ÿ Definitely load Windows 10. There will be many devices lacking Windows 11 drivers for atleast another 6 to 12 months.
A portion of NYSNET has four constellations.?ÿ For deep woods projects I set control points or occupy monuments with Static GNSS network using as man...
I would hold on to those units for static networks. Just last week I drove 5 hours to Long island to verify 12 control points on a NYSDOT project. I h...
25 years ago we had DOS programs such as CG survey (now Carlson) and others that work like your software. Some still use it. Back then this type of no...
@lurker?ÿ The Cambridge datum would?ÿ have to be higher the 88 datum to eliminate negative values. When I setup with CORS on 88 datum I see values l...
