Dec
11, 2014 - Kansas City, MO - GeoLearn, a
company focused on serving the geospatial industry with online learning
and continuing education credits, is proud to announce that
nationally recognized geospatial expert Bill Henning's seven
new GNSS courses have been added to the GeoLearn course catalog.
Bill Henning is a professional land surveyor who was instrumental in
developing RTK guidelines for surveyors at the National Geodetic Survey
(NGS). Here he expands on the basics of positioning with RTK and adds a
special three-course series on heighting with GNSS.
Bill's four courses on RTK dissect
how GNSS works, covering the physics and surveying implications of what
affects the signals from space, benefits and costs of single base
versus real time networks, and best field methods to maximize a
surveyor's effectiveness with RTK.
His heighting series (three
courses) cover the interrelationships between gravity and
heights, use of the NGS hybrid geoid model and height modernization
procedures, and use of the NGS 58 and 59 guidelines and real-time
precision. "I've tried to incorporate the very latest in the
science and practical knowledge that many have developed at NGS in
collaboration with public and private partners on the subject of
effective RTK use and heighting with GNSS," said Henning.
"We were so
pleased when Bill agreed to teach this series of courses," said
Joe Paiva, CEO of GeoLearn. "Bill is a national treasure to
surveyors and we are pleased to be able to extend his legacy to the
public beyond his tenure with NGS."
