PRM Chapter 16: Global Navigation Satellite Systems

The math and mandates of satellite surveying. We extract the strict practice standards for using GNSS in BC. Focus on the ABCLS requirements for independent redundancy, baseline processing, tying into the active control network, and mitigating multipath errors. Key Learning Points: Mandatory time-separation for RTK, constellation checks, and validating coordinates.
