Abstract

GPS navigation is the most frequently used technology for determining geographical position of objects. Despite of their popularity currently available consumer GPS receivers do not offer good accuracy. At the Silesian University of Technology the research was done for measuring errors and improving the accuracy of navigation devices. The special device which can be equipped with four GPS navigation receivers has been developed for performing research on accuracy of positioning.
