Good morning to the thread:

This is a bit OT but interesting. Nice video giving background on the GPS system, who maintains it, etc. GPS III being rolled out now and will be implemented over the next 4 years. mail.google.com . GPS has become a "taken for granted" foundation of a lot of our modern technology. Land surveying is all done with GPS for example. Just had a piece done. They run an aerial up and calibrate their receivers at two or three known local points, then dial in. I think they can work to within a foot.
