Abstract :
The application of on-the-fly kinematic GPS (OTF-KGPS) to establishing a large scale seismic survey control is pioneered. The seismic points are staked out in the field using the real-time DGPS method and their precise coordinates are determined using OTF-KGPS. The paper briefly describes land seismic survey requirements. It then outlines the key concepts of the employed method of OTF-KGPS. Field surveys are described and sample results are given
