Static and Kinematic Surveys-2.0.0en
Introduction
The purpose of this short manual is
to give guidelines and useful hints on
how to perform static, rapid static and
kinematic surveys using SR510,
SR520 or SR530 GPS receivers
without utilizing Realtime techniques.
Realtime applications, based on the
use of radio modems - in particular
RTK (Real-Time-Kinematic) opera-
tion with SR530 receivers - are
described in the booklet "Getting
Started with Real-Time Surveys".
Full description of all features and
functions of System 500 can be
found in the "Technical Reference"
Manual which is available as an
electronic PDF document only. This
manual can be found on the SKI-Pro
installation CD. For more information
please refer to the file
\MANUALS\README.TXT on the
SKI-Pro installation CD.
It is assumed that the reader of this
manual is familiar with the principles
of GPS Surveying, i.e. he knows the
concept of differential measure-
ments, the need for a reference
receiver, etc. A basic introduction of
these principles is given in the
booklet "General Guide to Static and
Rapid Static".
After studying these guidelines a user
will know the basic concepts and
principles of how to operate System
500 and carry out static, rapid static
and kinematic GPS surveys.
