  • Patent number: 8223068
    Abstract: According to embodiments, a method of logging position data is provided. An indication of a desired accuracy value for determining a geographic position is received. A geographic position is then received. A predicted post-processed accuracy value for the received geographic position is then calculated. The desired accuracy value is then compared with the predicted post-processed accuracy value for the received geographic position. When the predicted post-processed accuracy value for the received geographic position is at least as precise as the desired accuracy value, the geographic position is logged.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6392589
    Abstract: A system and method for automated differential correction processing of field data in a global positioning system (GPS). In one embodiment, the present invention retrieves GPS field data collected by one or more GPS receivers from a storage device, and then automatically selects the most appropriate differential correction scheme to generate a solution without user intervention. More specifically, the present invention executes a code-based correction scheme to generate a code-based solution for the field data. Next, the present invention examines the field data to determine whether a carrier phase correction is applicable. If the field data supports carrier phase correction, the present invention generates a carrier phase solution, compares it with the code-based solution, and returns the more accurate of the two solutions as the final result. If the field data does not support a carrier phase correction, the present invention returns the code-based solution as the final result.
