2. GPS in the earthmoving industry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_in_the_Earthmoving...

   These systems allow the equipment operator to use GPS position data to make decisions based on actual grade and design features. Some heavy equipment guidance systems can even operate the machine's implements automatically from a set design that was created for the particular jobsite. GPS guidance systems can have tolerances as small as two to ...

3. Inertial navigation system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_navigation_system

   An inertial navigation system (INS; also inertial guidance system, inertial instrument) is a navigation device that uses motion sensors (accelerometers), rotation sensors and a computer to continuously calculate by dead reckoning the position, the orientation, and the velocity (direction and speed of movement) of a moving object without the ...

4. StarFire (navigation system) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StarFire_(navigation_system)

   StarFire is a wide-area differential GPS developed by John Deere's NavCom and precision farming groups. StarFire broadcasts additional "correction information" over satellite L-band frequencies around the world, allowing a StarFire-equipped receiver to produce position measurements accurate to well under one meter, with typical accuracy over a 24-hour period being under 4.5 cm. StarFire is ...

5. Guidance system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guidance_system

   A guidance system is usually part of a Guidance, navigation and control system, whereas navigation refers to the systems necessary to calculate the current position and orientation based on sensor data like those from compasses, GPS receivers, Loran-C, star trackers, inertial measurement units, altimeters, etc.

6. GNSS applications - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNSS_applications

   Heavy equipment can use GNSS in construction, mining and precision agriculture. The blades and buckets of construction equipment are controlled automatically in GNSS-based machine guidance systems. Agricultural equipment may use GNSS to steer automatically, or

7. Machine guidance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_guidance

   The term Machine Guidance is used to describe a wide range of techniques which improve the productivity of agricultural, mining and construction equipment. It is most commonly used to describe systems which incorporate GPS, Motion Measuring Units (MMU) and other devices to provide on-board systems with information about the movement of the machine in either 3, 5 or 7 axis of rotation.
