System Monitoring and Administration

• For monitoring and administration of System software package from Leica is used: GNSS Spider, SpiderWeb, Spider Business Centre SBC, SpiderQC

SBC - User administration GNSS Spider – Monitoring of satellite trucking



Determination of KOPOS coordinates

• For processing of the KOPOS stations Bernese GPS Software v5.0 is used (Leica Geosystems, 2012b).

• GPS L1/L2 and GLONASS L1/L2 observations were provided 30sec data rate.

• 29 points of the First Order Referent Network Kosovaref01 realized in 2001 and the same time have been surveyed during the determination of KOPOS (Kosovaref01) in 2012 (ETRS89; ETRF97)

• The difference between present KOSOVAREF01 and new KOPOS in the realizing geodetic control points 1. order is smaller than 30 mm in plane position

� ∆ < 10 mm – excellent matching of the 6 points,

∆ < 20 mm – very good matching of the 14 points,

∆ < 30 mm – good / sufficient matching of the 7 points,

∆ > 30 mm – we consider not well matching for 2 points.

Benefits and advantages from usage of KOPOS

system

� Continuous operation: (24 hours/7 days a week)

� Provides data at unique state coordinate system KOSOVAREF01

� Is not influenced from eventual failure of one referent station

� Offers positioning in real time with: accuracy, reliability and availability everywhere in the Republic of Kosovo

� Projects: Reconstruction of Cadastral Information, Building Cadastre, co-ordinate cadastre. Addres register (collecting data for each road in Kosova)

KOPOS offers services free of charge until

December 31, 2013
