GPS Differential Accuracy
I recently went for a hill walk on Sliabh Mis and noticed on the way down that my e-trex GPS had got differential correction and accuracy to 3m! Three satellites 03, 15 and 16 had the letter "D" on the satellite strength bar in the advanced skyview page. Have any of you been aware of WAAS coverage being available in Ireland? Or is it the new European EGNOS Satellite in operation already?
Has anyone else been seeing this kind of accuracy for handheld GPS units? |
