B StarFire™
Description
The StarFire ™ Network is a global system for the
distribution of Differential GPS corrections giving the
user the ability to measure his position anywhere in the
world with exceptional reliability and unprecedented
accuracy of better than 10cm (4inches). Because the
Differential GPS corrections are broadcast via Inmarsat
geo-stationary satellites, the user needs no local
reference stations or post processing to get this
exceptional accuracy. Furthermore, the same accuracy
is available virtually any where on the earth's surface on
land or sea from 76°N to 76°S latitude due to the
worldwide coverage of the geo-stationary satellites.
