Learning Outcomes
Participants will be able to describe the basics of
GPS.

Overview
Part 1: A brief history of positioning
Part 2: GPS
Part 3: The amazing new world of precise
positioning

Where are we? What is
positioning and what is surveying?
Positioning in the USA (zero meridian)

The Importance of Time
Time has been the limiting factor for a lot
of science, including the science of
positioning
Better accuracy requires better clocks

The Launch of GPS
DOD sponsored project puts satellites into orbit
First Sat launched in 1978
24 Sats by mid 1990s
28 Currently in orbit, with more coming
A fundamental change in how positioning is done
What GPS has changed?

The GPS Receiver Who has a GPS Receiver?
What the receiver does
What the receiver does NOT

Basic Trilateration
D=RxT
Rate is Speed of light
Time is the key! Technology made it
possible
One you have distance, its “easy”

GPS positioning simplified to two dimensions
x
y

How a GPS receiver works
Find the satellites
Know where the satellites are
Figure out D=RxT
Trilaterate
Repeat, repeat, repeat

The limitations of GPS
Must be able to “see” the satellites
Requires power
Multiple sources of error
![Page 17: Geographic Information System (GIS) IS 454](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022012101/61db883c88aace6f2c236576/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Sources of Error in GPS
Multipathing
Atmospheric Delays
PDOP
Clocks
Orbits
Receiver electronics
others

PDOP (Position Dilution of Precision) or
“Why the distribution of GPS satellites in the sky affects how well I know where I am”
(Simplified to a 2-dimensional model)

PDOP (Position Dilution of Precision) or
“Why the distribution of GPS satellites in the sky affects how well I know where I am”
(Simplified to a 2-dimensional model)
x
Blue/Yellow have “good geometry” so the (green) error box around “x” is small (PDOP is small)
Red/Yellow have “bad geometry” so the (orange) error box around “x” is large (PDOP is large)

Conclusion and discussion
GPS completely changed positioning forever
GPS will continue to improve
