2. Real-time kinematic positioning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_kinematic...

   A surveyor uses a GNSS receiver with an RTK solution to accurately locate a parking stripe for a topographic survey. Real-time kinematic positioning (RTK) is the application of surveying to correct for common errors in current satellite navigation (GNSS) systems. [1]

   The roving antenna then applies those corrections to the GPS signals it is receiving to calculate its own position. RTK surveying covers smaller distances than static methods. This is because divergent conditions further away from the base reduce accuracy. Surveying instruments have characteristics that make them suitable for certain uses.

   Surveying — Survey-Grade GNSS receivers can be used to position survey markers, buildings, and road construction. [6] These units use the signal from both the L1 and L2 GPS frequencies. Even though the L2 code data are encrypted, the signal's carrier wave enables correction of some ionospheric errors.

5. StarFire (navigation system) - Wikipedia

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

   RTK consists of a small tripod-mounted GPS receiver that uses StarFire signals to perform its own dGPS calculations relative to a point, normally the corner of a field. The unit then broadcasts these corrections over a radio link to the equipment-mounted receivers. RTK offers absolute accuracy of about 2 cm, and relative accuracy in the ...

   However, this technique is slow and is currently limited to specialized surveying equipment. In the future, additional civilian codes are expected to be transmitted on the L2 and L5 frequencies (see GPS modernization). Then all users can perform dual-frequency measurements and directly compute ionospheric-delay errors.
