Continuing evolution of satellite-based geodetic positioning and survey navigation capabilities
Abstract
The paper reviews progress in the TRANSIT Navigation Satellite System for Offshore oil exploration and land geodetic survey, and examines trends affecting future developments. This report covers three major areas. The first is the field of land geodetic survey. The second area focuses on the evolution of integrated navigation systems for offshore oil exploration. The objective is to show how these systems have matured. Trends affecting the direction of future developments are discussed. Finally, this paper evaluates the coming impact of NAVSTAR, the Global Positioning System. 14 refs.
