Survey Pro COGO.pdfSurvey Pro COGO
Survey Pro has a rich suite of COGO functionality. Some of the routines may be well known to the audience while others may not be understood completely. This webinar will review many of the COGO routines. The audience should leave the session with a clear understanding of COGO functionalities in Survey Pro and how they are organized. In most cases, examples will be presented to allow the audience to graphically see the COGO that is being performed.

Site Calibrations in Survey Pro.pdfSurvey Pro Site Calibrations
In this webinar we cover following aspects:
Total station measurements are based on ground distances. Most construction sites are working on plans that were generated based on ground distances. But GNSS has no concept of ground distances. How does a surveyor safely take these signals from space and turn them into coordinates that fit on a job site?
This session will detail the process for calibrating a GNSS rover to ground based control points. The audience should leave the session with a clear understanding of the standard workflow to perform site calibrations in Survey Pro.

Survey Mobile Android Software.pdfSurvey Mobile Field software:
Android is emerging globally as the leader in OS for handhelds since Microsoft's decision to abandon the Windows CE platform. And while there are a lot of Android apps, there are surprisingly few that are made for land surveyors. Survey Mobile for Android from Spectra Geospatial is aimed squarely at land surveyors. It supports total stations and GNSS. It can be loaded on our ruggedized Android platforms such as the SP20 or MobileMapper 60, or it can just as easily be loaded to your Samsung phone. The audience should come away from this session with an understanding of the capabilities and basic functionality of Survey Mobile.

GNSS Elevations,Geoids,Geometry,Antennas.mp4Presentation used:
GNSS Elevations,Geoids,Geometry,Antennas.pdfGNSS Elevations: Geoids, Geometry, and Antennas
Scientists have learned that gravity affects elevations. But GNSS does not know anything about gravity. We use geoid models to reconcile elevations against GNSS. GNSS measurements are based on many factors. Two of these are the geometry of the satellites themselves and the antennas that are receiving these signals from space. Antenna variations alone can account for 10 or more centimeters of vertical difference. This session will explain how geoids correct GNSS for elevations and how geometry and antennas affect GNSS measurements.
SP90m - The most flexible GNSS receiver on the market.mp4Presentation used:
SP90m - The most flexible GNSS receiver on the market.pdfSP90m - The most flexible GNSS receiver on the market
The SP90m is mostly hidden away from view in an IT closet as a CORS station, or under the seat of a tractor as it is used for machine control. The specification sheet is impressive. The web interface is easy to navigate while still providing access to all its functionality. This webinar will cover the key points about this receiver. The audience should leave the session with an understanding of what this receiver is capable of doing and will get to see the interface that allows these configurations.

What is RTCM.mp4Presentation used:
What is RTCM.pdfWhat is RTCM?
In this video we cover following aspects:
Simply stated, RTCM is the English language of RTK.
RTCM is the data format that allows Brand A base station to work with Brands B, C and D rovers. Data formats such as ATOM or CMRx are proprietary to their respective companies.
RTCM is common to nearly all GNSS receivers. But where does this format come from? What is RTCM?
Many users will see it offered in their NTRIP list of mountpoints.
This session will explain who and what RTCM is. The audience will leave the session with a respectable amount of knowledge about this organization that mostly works in the background. This author sits on the Board of Directors for RTCM as Trimble's representative, is chairman of Special Committee 135 dealing with the radio layer of RTK and is secretary for Special Committee 104 which provides the RTK standard.
