Abstract
AbstractAs part of the Geoid Slope Validation Survey of 2011 (GSVS11), the global positioning system (GPS) was used in a variety of ways to determine the geodetic coordinates of nearly 400 passive geodetic control marks. The Texas DOT (TXDOT) real-time network (RTN) was one of the GPS positioning tools used. Both 6- and 180-s occupations were performed with the TXDOT RTN, as well as static 20-min occupations [processed using the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) Online Positioning User Service, Rapid-Static (OPUS-RS) tool], and 48+h occupations were adjusted as a network (using the NGS OPUS-Projects tool). Although the original 20-min occupations processed by OPUS-RS had an unforeseen systematic error (invalidating their use in this comparison), a direct comparison between OPUS-RS and the other techniques was still possible by subdividing the OPUS-Projects 48+h receiver independent exchange format (RINEX) files on 218 points into more than 30,000 individual 20-min segments. A comparison between all technique...
