For many surveyors, this service is like a new beginning. The existing functions are great and many additional features could be added. I just can imagine only a few of them:
- assisted-GPS broadcast service (A-GPS) that could be very helpful in dense canopy or other environments with obstructions, during very low signal levels.
- prediction and broadcast of the satellite trajectories (ephemeris) using a precise orbit generator resident on a server (state-of-the-art, not easy at all); bypassing the bulk of the initial GPS signal acquisition delays, we could have faster Time-To-First-Fix, higher sensitivity, lower battery drain, etc.
- robust multi-base static data processing/raw points collecting with RTK++ function from Justin;
- Galileo PRS-assured positions (on a map), through a redistribution approach from another PRS(Public Regulated Service) server; in a multi-GNSS signal scenario, jamming/spoofing-resistant positioning solutions (and alerts) will make the difference;
- graphic control interface and world maps of any location on Earth with common geographic features, extended reports and the list could continue;
Even if my thoughts are from a simple user perspective, I will look forward to the evolution of this service.
