New Satellite Positioning Station in Central Vietnam
The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment has launched a
DGPS to receive round the clock positioning signals from the US satellite system in Vietnam’s central province of Quang Nam. It will be useful for the development of the seaborne economy and the management of natural resources and environment. http://newswire.bernama.com
The NSDI Annual event, NSDI-9 is around the corner. What has been the progress of NSDI in the past year?
The major achievement during the intervening period is release of NSDI metadata standard ver.2.0. The earlier version was brought out before ISO (TC.211)/OGC, released the standard on metadata ISO 19115. Now, this standard conforms to the international standards. Taking the SDI a step forward, the Karnataka Geo-portal of Karnataka Spatial Data Infrastructure is being launched during NSDI-9 and Delhi Geoportal has already been launched in November 2009. Kerala has sanctioned the requisite resources for creating Kerala State SDI. The process of building Kerala Geo-portal is on and the RFP is already issued.
What is your vision with regard to Trimble expansion plan in India?
Our vision is to determine the challenges that our Indian customers are trying to solve in the Utilities, Construction, Infrastructure, Mobile Resource Management, GIS and Mapping, Public Safety and Surveying industries to develop localized software and hardware solutions that meet their needs for increased productivity and reduced rework. We offer solutions that have been proven worldwide and now we must determine if these solutions meet the needs of the Indian customer. Where the solutions do not meet their needs or requirements we must adapt them so they can provide our customers maximum productivity advantages. We can accomplish this by adding resources in our Delhi and Chennai offices in marketing, R&D and sales. Where we find it necessary to create or integrate new solutions to address the unique needs of the Indian market,
Impressive
The articles particularly on BWSL, Sustainable Land Governance, in Coordinates are very interesting. More particularly BWSL where I have been on the Technical Advisory Committee of BWSL right from Conception to its Implementation. The article is written in an impressive manner, although we could have created a much bigger land mark / signature structure. Each one of the authors has contributed immensely as they have been deeply involved and contributed sincerely for the completion of the project and must need a loud applause. For “sustainable Land Governance”
Phase multipath is one of the most crucial error sources in centimetre or millimetre level GNSS high precision positioning. Short-delay multipath is still especially difficult to detect or mitigate by the state-of-the-art hardwarebased techniques. Therefore, processing algorithm-based multipath mitigation methods are crucial for the further improvement of positioning accuracy, either integrated with other techniques or in a stand-alone mode…
