The Canada-Wide Differential GPS Service: Initial Performance

H. Rho, R. Langley, A. Kassam

Abstract:	The Canada-wide Differential GPS (CDGPS) Service provides wide-area DGPS corrections via L-band communications satellite across the breadth of Canada as well as parts of the United States. This real-time service is based on the GPS*C corrections generated by Natural Resources Canada using data from its network of active control stations. Testing of the service is currently underway and the service is expected to launch in the fall of this year. In this paper, we present results of system beta testing carried out at University of New Brunswick (UNB) and elsewhere in Canada.
