Under Manual Position Set accurately enter latitude , longitude (both in decimal
degrees), and altitude (in meters [ WGS 84 ]) of your GNSS antenna, VelaSync
can use this data during the satellite tracking/adjustment process, which typically
leads to a quicker "fix". It is recommended to enter the position as accurately as
possible.
Determining Your Position
To determine your GNSS position, using Google Maps™:
1.
On your computer, open
Google Maps
.
2.
In Google Maps, locate your building, and the location of your antenna.
3. Right-click on the location. Select What's here? At the bottom, you will see a card
with the coordinates.
4.
Take note of your decimal position (e.g., 43.083191, -77.589718).
Note: Should you prefer to determine your position in a different
way, and as a result, have your latitude & longitude data in
degrees/minutes/ seconds, you need to convert this data to the
decimal format e.g., by using a conversion tool, such as Earth
Point

, or
