GNSS Positioning: Survey Planning and Data Acquisition suggests best practices when using GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) in land surveys. Follow several surveyors as they plan a GNSS project, begin field work, and start to process their data.

This introductory-level lesson is online, self-paced, and provides a certificate for those completing the quiz. It is intended for land surveyors, but anyone with scientific literacy can benefit. 

This latest lesson is one of several self-paced lessons on geodetic and remote sensing topics available on the NGS website. NGS has developed these lessons by partnering with the COMET MetEd Program. MetEd is a free collection of training resources intended for the geoscience community.
