[sac-forum] Re: GPS

Stan,

The typical Consumer grade GPSr will have an accuracy of about 10 feet with
WAAS enabled. Probably about 2-3 times that without WAAS.

Just out of curiosity, what are you trying to do that you need that kind of
accuracy?

This may appear off topic but it revolves around astronomy on my lot. I
would like to know accurately the location of the sides of my lot, i.e.,
perpendicular to the road. I have discovered that there is a 'surveyor' 
type GPS unit that is accurate to 1/300ths of a foot. However, I doubt I
could rent one because I think they are very expensive. Do GPS's exist for
the non-surveyor citizon that is accurate to within plus or minus 6 inches
or a foot?
