Hi, Rob. I've been using GPS and DGPS in oil-exploration activities since 1985. I've seen a few changes since waiting up all night in Brazil to catch a 25 minute period of good Block I geometry!! It's a while since I spent any time in this Section, but I see a lot of GPS "misinformation" all over CIS. I've applied, on behalf of the Hydrographic Society ( 2000 individual and corporate members in 70 countries) to organise a "Spatial Information" forum. This would include Land and Hydrographic Surveying, as well as LIS/GIS, Geophysics, TMS etc. It is intended to have a whole section devoted to GPS. Would you ( or anyone else here) like to see such a beast ( I need all the ammunition I can get, since CIS Management doesn't seem to see the same need that we do!). Let me know whether you would visit the forum, if it were to be established. Rob
