Hi
I was not sure if I should add this to the thread “GPS Compass Configuration” or start a new one, but I chose a new one.
At NVE (Norway) we are considering to buy Vector GPS (gnss) to get both boat velocity and heading info from the GPS.
If such a unit exist, we want
– Survey grade position (1-2 cm accuracy)
– Option to use base station (same or other brand)
– Built in mobile modem to receive correction data (from virtual base stations) on RTCM- format V2.3 or V3.1
– Easy to setup with Sontek/TRDI adcps
– Light weight
– Easy to operate and reliable quality
Questions
1) Am I right when I think that there is no need to do compass calibration/evaluation then using vector GPS?
2) Who (which agency/company) uses vector GPS regularly?
3) What brand/model do you use, and how is your experience with it? (Reliability, accuracy, ease of use,…)
4) Are there any units that meet all (or most) of my wishes?
Kristoffer
