GNSS Technology development in point position fixing in Hungary
Busics, Gyorgy and Robert Farkas
In the past decade the impact of GNSS hardware and software development and specially the ground based infrastructure improvement is favourable. As a consequence of this, the applied technology for geodetic position fixing is changing from static measurements to network RTK. In this paper we present and describe the technological steps we went through in Hungary in the past years. At the beginning of GPS era because of the lack of GNSS infrastructure we used the traditional horizontal points as reference, static measurements and postprocessing. After that the national GPS network had been established, we used it as a frame for connecting it to ETRS and the local Hungarian datum as well. Later, the traditional RTK dramatically reduced the time of measurement. The active GNSS network has already had the opportunity achieving positioning without own reference station. In order to test the three realised concepts of network RTK, namely the VRS, FKP and MAC, we have done experimental measurements in the past months. Based on the first results, we may say, that furthermore significant effectiveness is expected by introducing this new technology.
