For those without a satnav lock yet: Datum is a defined 3D geometry model used to translate a physical coordinate given by satnav into a latitude, longitude and altitude.
Different datum -> different lat/long/alt.

- mlevental 7y agoyou're the perfect person to ask about this: i have a trimble i used to survey some points (using RTX) that shows a ~1 meter offset from data i've collected using piksi PPK'ed against a CORS station. i've checked the datum i export in on the trimble (wgs84) and the datum of the CORS base station and despite performing a conversion i can't get them to line up. any ideas?
- tugrul 7y agoAre they the using the same realization of the datum? https://vdatum.noaa.gov/docs/datums.html https://vdatum.noaa.gov/docs/datums.html
