My fairly accurate Garmin 60CSx is still wildly inaccurate when I position myself at the corner of a building and try to measure its dimensions since the building and the surrounding blocks most GPS signals. So more accurate surveying equipment would for one thing be more useful in getting data of regular quality in areas where there's bad reception. There's also the whole use case of mapping things with <5m accuracy where most GPS units start being very inaccurate. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
