GPS surveys
GlacioBasis has three main uses for GPS measurements: tracking the displacement of the
stakes
, positioning the GPR radar traces, and mapping the surface elevation of the
glacier. These tasks require differential GPS (DGPS)
accuracy, and all efforts should be expended in obtaining them. Standalone GPS
measurements should be avoided since they are much less accurate, and should only be
