INTEGRATION OF OBSERVER'S SATELLITE POSITION WITH NUMERICAL MAPS - OLMAP APPLICATION

In the paper the author’s application called OLMAP for determination of an observer position on numerical maps is presented. This appli cation integrates GPS receiver’s position with numerical maps during the measurements in real-time taking advantage of DGPS and RTK techniques. One of the options of this application is positioning or/and monitoring of moving GPS antenna on a numerical map indicating the speed and direction of vehicle movement. Positions of moving GPS antenna may be obtained with the accuracy of 1-2 meters in DGPS mode or 1-3 centimeters in the RTK mode. The OLMAP application can be also successfully used for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Land Information Systems (LIS).
