Could one be sure of his Magellan?
We’ve got some quality clich?s – “as reliable as Toyota”, “as prestigious as Mercedes”, “as accurate as Swiss watches”. Now the situation is changing – companies prefer volumes and market opportunities rather than quality. We even observe how many trusted products lose their quality. That wouldn’t be life-threatening if we talk about an electric razor or a recorder, but if it is a GPS device packed in a rugged case and used in most risky conditions during expeditions and travels its highest quality really matters. In many cases not only health but life depends on uninterrupted work of a GPS device. Many people experienced poor quality so they will not use a cheap product any more. But does quality depend on the price and the brand of a product? Подробнее

Differential corrections in GLONASS and GPS navigation.
One of the way of improvement of location accuracy with use of satellite navigation systems (GPS, GLONASS) are differential corrections (1). A principle is not new, in navigation saved up error in points with known co-ordinates traditionally writes off. Actually differential corrections have started to apply in landbased navigating systems (2). The idea is simple enough - in a place with precisely known co-ordinates antenna of the navigating receiver is installed and the difference of the true and measured values which is in a greater degree a regular error (3), transferred to the consumer. It would seem, all is simple - to transfer a difference of co-ordinates. But, there are some nuances. Let's remeber a principle of definition of co-ordinates and the major sources of errors.

GPS - CLUB.RU - 4 years. A summary report about Club affairs.
The very same day four years ago our first variant of site GPS-CLUB.RU was founded, why we have chosen such name is explained simply enough and the explanation is covered already in the name. Not all knew word GPS at that point in time and often mussed up with GPRS, but for knowing people already it was clear about what there is a speech (we then sincerely considered, and we consider to this day, that GPS (GLOBAL POSITION SYSTEM) concerns all systems of satellite positioning, both to American NAVSTAR and to European GALILEO and Russian GLONASS
