observations a misconception that Mr. Jay Seymour, president
of 2015 California Land Surveyors Association, stressed in his
lectures: “26 decimal places GPS could give might NOT be an
accurate measurement if you just read numbers from the data
collector.” Chapters 6 and 7 provides practice suggestions,
which are valuable tips for readers who have little or no
experience with GPS surveying, and a good field to office guide
for experience users. The author provides tools to promote
learning, exercises and solutions are available for readers to
check their level of understanding at the end of each chapter,
an important tool for assessment; insertion of glossary was
helpful for anyone trying to broaden his/her GPS vocabularies.

concisely written and enhanced with updates in modern
satellite navigation technologies. Dr. Van Sickle shows his
extensive knowledge in satellite navigation and his ability
to explain difficult concepts to a broad audience. Diagrams,
figures and tables are an appropriate and concise illustration
of topics. Targeted audiences should be able to gain thorough
understanding of the purposes, background, process and
practical aspects of GPS. It is an excellent class text or
reference book in one’s professional library. It is common
to see a book about satellite navigation, but it is rare to see
one catering to a specific profession. This book is unique and
beneficial to have a copy for anyone pursuing a career in the
land surveying and/or geospatial engineering industries.
