On the generation algorithm of VRS virtual observations

  • Published:
Geo-spatial Information Science

Abstract

In the past few years, network RTK positioning technology, especially the VRS technology, has been widely used in some parts of China and in many countries around the world. The principle of the VRS technology is discussed with corresponding formula deduction, and detailed descriptions and applications of VRS corrections and virtual observations generation algorithm are given.
