This paper proposes a model for combined Global Positioning System (GPS) and BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) positioning. The approach uses only one common reference ambiguity, for example, that of GPS L1, and estimates the pseudo-range and carrier phase system and frequency biases. The validations show that these biases are stable during a continuous reference ambiguity period and can be easily estimated, and the other estimated double-differenced ambiguities, such as those of GPS L2, BDS L1, and BDS L2, are not affected. Therefore, our approach solves the problems of a frequently changing reference satellite. In addition, because all the carrier phase observations use the same reference ambiguity, a relationship is established between the different systems and frequencies, and the strength of the combined model is thus increased.

Global Positioning

The NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based navigation system that will provide extremely accurate three-dimensional position fixes and timing information to properly equipped users anywhere on or near the Earth. The system will be available continuously regardless of weather conditions and will find extensive utilization in improved weapons delivery accuracies, range instrumentation, &c. Furthermore it will provide an ultimate saving in the number and cost of navigation and position-fixing systems currently employed or projected. It is a Joint Service programme managed by the U.S.A.F. with deputies from the Navy, Army and Marines and the Defense Mapping Agency. The system concept evolved from U.S.A.F. and Navy studies initiated in the mid-1960s. Current programme plans call for the deployment of six satellites in 1977 to permit demonstration and evaluation tests over the continental United States. The system will then be expanded through the deployment of additional satellites into an operational 24-satellite system.

O acesso a geolocalização em smartphones e tablets tem apontado seu uso potencial no levantamento de dados georreferenciados e como ferramenta de mapeamento replicável por usuários não-especialistas. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a experiência do mapeamento participativo dos territórios de ação das equipes de Estratégia de Saúde da Família (ESF) do município de Santo Amaro (BA) com recursos de GPS/GNSS (Global Positioning System/Global Navigation Satellite System) e imagem de satélite do Google Earth, no aplicativo Map Marker. Neste trabalho, são apresentados os aspectos da percepção e transcrição dos elementos espaciais no processo de digitalização e atualização cartográfica destes territórios.  Foram realizadas oficinas nas 17 unidades básicas de saúde (UBS) a fim de cartografar os territórios de atuação – microáreas - dos 104 Agentes Comunitários de Saúde (ACS). Das 17 UBS, 10 apresentavam algum produto cartográfico. Esses produtos pré-existentes contribuíram para a correspondência espacial entre o território e as imagens de satélite. A identificação das microáreas foi satisfatória, porém, o maior desafio foi a vetorização das poligonais. Apesar disso, em cada equipe houve ao menos um profissional que se destacou e foi capaz de reproduzir a metodologia sem um mediador. O uso das tecnologias geoespaciais aplicadas ao mapeamento em saúde mostrou-se viável para a área de estudo, e reforça a importância do treinamento para a autonomia dos atores sociais e a democratização desses recursos nas estratégias em saúde pública. A obtenção destas bases cartográficas deve subsidiar à espacialização de doenças registradas na atenção básica bem como à gestão de saúde do município.

Technical Considerations

The purpose of the study on which this paper is based was to establish whether there was a maritime requirement for a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) integrity monitoring and warning service in UK and Irish waters, and, if so, how best it could be established and operated.The scope of the study extended to all maritime users: merchant ships; fishing vessels; pleasure craft; and all aspects of the voyage: harbour/harbour approach; coastal and ocean passage.It has been assumed that the United States Global Positioning System (GPS) would be the system adopted, since it is the closest to an operational state. However, most of the technical considerations would apply equally to the Russian GLONASS or any future replacement system under international control.The views expressed are those of the author, and should not be taken to represent the policies of the Department of Transport or any of the other bodies mentioned.
