CooperationCooperationCompatibilityp y
– Promises better coverage of the earth's surface and a higher signal availability without which there will be ahigher signal availability - without which there will be a conflict with an individual service or signal.
– Frequencies – lack of conflict– Separation of military and civilian Codes
CooperationInteroperability (compatibility, technical)
Cooperation
– Sharing of two (or more) GNSS systems, in order to achieve better performance on the user side, rather than to rely solely on one service or signal.
Ad t tAdvantage to users– More satellites– Better availability on the day– Better availability with shadowing– More security through greater redundancy– More frequencies– Better error modeling
CooperationCooperationImpact on Interoperability

Not influenced by differential corrections– For use by its own reference station or network.
Solar Activity
Solar Activity A reminderSolar Activity – A reminder…
the ionosphere is becoming morethe ionosphere is becoming more troublesome for GPS/GNSS users. This trend of escalating ionospheric activity will extend through the next maximum -- now predicted for mid-2013 -- and beyond. The "envelope" of i h i ti it ill t d fionospheric activity will extend from, say, 2011 thru 2015, give or take.

Water Management
What is Water Management?What is Water Management?Optimizing water use when it is scarce– Leveling fields
Removing water when it is in excess– Implementing drainage systems
What are the Benefits?What are the Benefits?
Precision LevelingPrecision Leveling– Improve yield by 20 - 30% over conventional
leveling technology– Improve up to 50% on newly leveled fields– Conserve water for flood irrigation - fields can be
leveled to +/ 1cmleveled to +/- 1cm– Reduces chemical runoff– Topsoil managementTopsoil management– 24 hour operation
What are the Benefits?What are the Benefits?Farm Drainage– Increase in yield (20% average in US midwest)– Better yield consistency year over year
Improvement in crop quality– Improvement in crop quality– Roots are larger and deeper– Allows for more time in the fieldAllows for more time in the field– Allows for earlier planting– Controls field erosion– Improves Nitrogen retention

SURVEY DESIGN GRADE
Laser Versus GNSSLaser Versus GNSSLaser System
V ti l A +/ 6 t 300– Vertical Accuracy +/- 6mm to 300m– Accuracy affected by windy conditions– Flat plane
no Earth curvature correctionsno Earth curvature corrections– More labor intensive than GNSS
GNSS System– 3D positioning for survey3D positioning for survey– Vertical Accuracy is complex
Within 3km of base station – 25mmWithin 16km of base station – 50mmCan be better, can be worse
– Not affected by windy conditions– Do the job to the curve of the Earth
M ffi i t– More efficient Saves operator one day a week over laser operation
