8 RTK Mapping<br />

The status bar has two parts in which RTK status information is<br />

displayed. The bottom part of the status bar indicates the current mode<br />

of operation along with messages explaining the status of<br />

initialization. The mode of operation indicates the state of the current<br />

RTK position being sent from the GPS receiver.<br />

Table 8.4 lists the RTK status modes.<br />

Table 8.4 RTK status modes in Asset Surveyor<br />

Mode message Description<br />

Float The receiver is computing Float solutions. Solutions<br />

are precise to better than plus or minus a meter.<br />

Fixed The receiver is computing Fixed solutions. Solutions<br />

are precise to between 2 and 5 cm, depending on<br />

whether you are in roving or static mode.<br />

The top part of the status bar displays precision estimates indicating<br />

the horizontal and vertical precision of the current position as<br />

computed at the phase center of the antenna. The values displayed<br />

here provide a level of quality assurance, which, when monitored<br />

closely, offers information related to the appropriateness for RTK data<br />

collection within the current environment.<br />

For example, as the precision values rise, it is likely that<br />

environmental or satellite conditions are not as ideal for data<br />

collection as when they are low. Use the precision estimate values to<br />

help make judgments with respect to the reliability of a position for<br />

collection.<br />
