【 摘 要 】

The concept of Real Time Kinematic (RTK) Network has become popular throughout the world since the beginning of 2000s. The RTK Network server collects satellite observations from the RTK Network, performs calculations and sends RTK corrections to the rover. Thus, these RTK Networks eliminates the need for post-processing GPS observations; instead the users in the field instantaneously obtain the receiver antenna’s three dimensional coordinates with cm accuracy. This paper details the infrastructure of the Turkish RTK CORS Network called TUSAGA-Aktif established by Istanbul Kultur University in association with the General Directorate of Land Registration and Cadastre and the General Command of Mapping and sponsored by the Turkish Scientific and Technical Research Agency (TUBITAK). The network constitutes 146 Continuously Operating Reference Stations controlled by the two control stations, the Master Control Station at the Photogrammetry and Geodesy Administration of the General Directorate of Land Registration and Cadastre and the Auxiliary Control Station at the Headquarters of the General Command of Mapping both in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey.
