Comparison of classical-RTK and network-RTK surveying methods in coastal regions

Abstract

Since the beginning of human life, human beings have wanted to know their location, and have therefore tried to find out where they are and where they are going throughout their lives. Researches and inventions that have shaped this situation have followed one another. Throughout history, the methods used to obtain location information have improved day by day, and the possibilities of obtaining precise location information faster with more ergonomic devices have emerged. Recently, the Real Time Kinematics have attracted attention in this respect. In this study, "Comparison of Classical-RTK and Network-RTK surveying methods in Coastal Regions" was conducted in Coastal Regions. For this purpose, 12 point locations were determined by creating two separate study areas in two different regions with an approximate surface area of 3.078 km2 and 1.346 km2 in the coastal region. When a base was created between TUSAGA-Active points namely, N4, N5, N6, IN1, IN2, IN3 were located in the inside and N1, N2, N3, DN1, DN2, DN3 points were located in the outside part of the network structure. Static, Classical-RTK and Network-RTK measurement methods were used at 12 points in the study areas in both regions. First of all, static measurements were made at 12 points were taken into account as a reference values for the comparison of the measurements from both Classical-RTK and Network-RTK methods. The differences of the static measurement values and the measurement values obtained by Classical-RTK and Network-RTK measurement methods were taken respectively. These measurement differences were analyzed and compared in various aspects.
