description | Geodetic infrastructure traditionally consisted of physical (passive) geodetic marks in the ground and the associateddata, including coordinates and datum. Over the past two decades, there has been a move away from providing passivegeodetic marks to providing active control networks via Continuously Operating GNSS Reference Station (CORS)networks. Continuously Operating Reference System (CORS) is one of the hot developments of GNSS at present. Itsappearance has brought profound change to the surveying and mapping industry, and many cities and regions all overthe world have built several CORS systems now. Jeddah Municipality (JM) established a Virtual Reference Stations(VRS) GPS network for different survey applications. JM provides the users with VRS service to enable them to reacha real time cm-accuracy of horizontal position with single GPS receiver. This paper introduces Jeddah CORS/VRSdesign, establishment as well as its assessment using static and Real Time Kinematic (RTK) methods. The resultsindicate that, Jeddah CORS/VRS complies with the design requirements and can provide centimetre level positioningservices. |
