provide optimal positioning.

•  Once the red POS LED is green, the receiver has 

a position and surveying can begin; wait for green 

light before beginning data collection. This en-

sures that the receiver has the correct date and 

time, and is locked on to enough satellites to en-

sure good quality data.

•  The process of locking on to satellites normally 

takes less than one minute. In a new area, under 

heavy tree canopy, or after resetting the receiver, it 

may take several minutes.

•  To begin collecting data, press and hold the Re-

cord button (for more than one second and less 

than five seconds).

•  Release the Record button when the REC (record-

ing) LED turns green. This indicates that a file has 

opened and data collection has started. The REC 

LED blinks each time data is saved to the internal 

memory.

When finished, press and hold the Record button 

until the REC LED light goes out.

To turn off the receiver, press and hold the power 

key until all lights go out, then release.

Static Surveying for Base Stations

Static surveying is the classic survey method, well 

suited for all kinds of baselines (short, medium, long). 

At least two receiver antennas, plumbed over survey 

marks, simultaneously collect raw data at each end of 

a baseline during a certain period of time. These two 

receivers track four or more common satellites, have 

a common data logging rate (5–30 seconds), and the 

same elevation mask angles. The length of the obser-

vation sessions can vary from a few minutes to sev-

eral hours. The optimal observation session length 

depends on the surveyor’s experience as well as the 

following factors:

•  The length of the baseline measured

•  The number of satellites in view

•  The satellite geometry (DOP)

•  The antenna’s location

•  The ionospheric activity level

•  The types of receivers used

•  The accuracy requirements

•  The necessity of resolving carrier phase ambigu-

ities

Generally, single-frequency receivers are used for 

baselines whose lengths do not exceed 15 kilometers 

(9.32 miles). For baselines of 15 kilometers or greater, 

use dual-frequency receivers.

Dual-frequency receivers have two major benefits. 

First, dual frequency receivers can estimate and re-

move almost all ionospheric effect from the code and 

carrier phase measurements, providing much greater 

accuracy than single-frequency receivers over long 

baselines or during ionospheric storms. Secondly, 

dual-frequency receivers need far less observation 

time to reach the desired accuracy requirement.

After the survey completes, data the receivers col-

lect can be downloaded onto a computer and pro-

cessed using post-processing software (for example, 

JAVAD GNSS Justin).

Kinematic (Stop & Go) Surveying for Rover 

Stations

In a kinematic, stop and go survey, the stationary 

receiver (Base station) is set up at a known point such 

as a survey monument, or an unknown point. The re-

ceiver continually tracks satellites and logs raw data 

into its memory. The Rover receiver is set up at an 

unknown point and collects data in static mode for 

2 to 10 minutes. When finished, assign the Rover to 

kinematic status and move to the next survey point. 

At this point, and each subsequent point, the receiv-

er is changed to static mode to collect data. So, while 

moving, the Rover is in kinematic mode, and while 

collecting data, the Rover is in static mode.

•  Set up the Rover at an unknown point and press 

power. Allow the Rover to collect static data for 

two to ten minutes. The REC LED will be yellow.

•  Check the SAT light for satellites tracked. 

•  When finished, press the FN button for less than 

1 second to assign the Rover to kinematic.

•  Move the Rover to the next location (survey 

point), and press the FN button for less than a sec-

ond to collect the data in static mode for two to ten 

minutes. 

•  Repeat steps five and six until all points have 

been surveyed. The occupation time for the points 

depends on the same factors as for the static sur-

vey method. 

•  When finished, press the FN button for one to five 

seconds to stop logging data. Turn off the Rover if 

needed. This method of GNSS survey allows the 

operator to reduce the point occupation time, thus 

permitting field crews to survey many more points 

compared to the other methods available.
