Hi I need some information about the above subject. We are planning a educational project for water management networks in Ethiopia and we applied to get a precision GPS to do the surveys.
We just got hit by one very upset persons responsible for the project that told us that a professor of topography explained them that: "since in Africa there is not geoid, the GPS is useless" Apart of the citation, which may rise some comments on its own, I was wondering if there is something I am not considering and should really know. We have used gps in Rwanda without problems for the same purposes and I am quite puzzled about what I am missing. Any advice or link to documentation is very appreciated, Thanks, Andrea _______________________________________________ This message is sent to you from FOSS-GPS@lists.osgeo.org mailing list.
