Positioning infrastructures for sustainable land governance [electronic resource]
Positioning infrastructures for sustainable land governance [electronic resource]
- Washington FIG 2009
Traces the evolution from the concepts of Geodetic Datums to Positioning Infrastructures and their relevance to the parallel evolution of the concept of Land Governance. A geodetic datum describes positions in three dimensions and underpins all of what we now call geo-spatial information. The concept of a Positioning Infrastructure is based on Global Navigation Satellite Systems such as GPS and extends to the ground infrastructure used to improve the accuracy and reliability of GNSS positioning for users.
