Precision Farming & Global Positioning Essentials
Across
- 1. Control, space and user are the three main component of.
- 4. Increased GPS accuracy using differential correction.
- 9. European satellite navigation system.
- 10. Finding location by measuring distances.
- 12. Global position model used by GPS.
- 14. A system that helps to find exact locations in the world.
- 17. It is in space providing location signals.
- 18. Electronic charged layer affecting GNSS signals.
- 22. These receivers use carrier- phase tracking methods to provide centimeter accuracy for surveying, topography mapping and automated steering.
- 24. A Coordinate used to specify north-south position.
- 25. It should be installed at highest position, so it does not face multipath type errors.
- 26. A measure indicating how various errors (Ionospheric, tropospheric, clock, and multipath) impact the overall accuracy of a GPS reading.
- 27. Software which is used for analyzing and making maps from location-based data.
Down
- 2. Attenuation, The weakening of a signal as it travels through barriers.
- 3. It should be installed their where we can easily see it and operate it.
- 5. The acronym for Graphical User Interface.
- 6. A method in GIS that uses vertices and segments to create points, lines and polygons to represent objects.
- 7. This type of data storage in GIS uses a grid format.
- 8. Error due to signal reflection.
- 11. Three satellites are needed, but a fourth is used to correct for correcting which errors.
- 13. Both moving and stationary GPS units need to simultaneously track this set of objects in space.
- 15. Mask, A setting in a receiver that blocks incoming signals from low in the sky to lessen certain errors.
- 16. Part of GNSS responsible for satellite management and data correction.
- 19. The measure of strength of the desired signal relative to the background noise.
- 20. Type of data with less accurate orbital information.
- 21. station, This stationary part of a GPS system knows its own precise location, where the satellites are, and can figure out the exact distance to them.
- 23. The shape of the Earth used in GPS.
