G.P.S. (Global Position System) revolutioned on recent years the techniques of topographical relief.
The continuous evolution of the system, the technological innovation of the receivers,the new methodologies: V.R.S. ( Virtual Reference Station), the coming of GPS relief in Italian Cadastre (pregeo 8) has contributed to make to grow the interest from part of the operating technicians in the topographical field towards this technology, making to enter this acronym (GPS) in their common jargon.
But G.P.S.system is not the only existing satellite constellation, in fact at the end of 80’s ex-Soviet Union has developed GLONASS system.
During the last years we have assisted to the developement of numerous initiatives been born with the clear intent of spread the correct knowledge and divulgation of G.P.S. technology (meetings, courses, manifestations), but very rererly during these initiatives we have equally talked about GLONASS (Global Navigation Satellite System).
The lack of information and knowledge and often the denigration untrue (as we are going to see) made at today GLONASS system very little known and than subestimated.
The task of this site is to guide the visitor to an exact kowledge of the condition and hystory of GLONASS system.
It is correct determining what a all information found on this site are taken by a precise research on the internet, you will find the original sources on links page.
We conclude this brief introduction affirming:
GLONASS: THE TRUTH.
