Speaker: Matt Morris

When collecting GIS data using high precision GNSS receivers, it is important to have a sufficient understanding of geodetics to fully realize high accuracy GIS features at the end of a workflow. In this Power Hour, we will provide a brief introduction of basic geodetic concepts for the GIS user community and discuss the impact of reference frames on both real-time correction and post-processing workflows. We will also discuss planned improvements to post-processing workflows in regards to geodetics. A basic knowledge of GIS coordinate system concepts is recommended. Attendees will learn:

  • What are the basic geodetic concepts necessary for GIS users?
  • How are coordinate systems handled through differential correction?
  • What is the impact of reference frame and epoch on both real-time correction and post-processing workflows?
  • How are feature heights affected by coordinate system settings?
  • How can users obtain the “best” accuracy when storing features in their GIS?
