Dynamic differential positioning is a real-time calibration technique achieved by sending corrections to the roving receiver from one or more monitor stations. Static differential GPS involves determining baseline vectors between pairs of receivers. 1, record 2, English, - differential

La détermination des coordonnées relatives de deux récepteurs ou plus engagés simultanément dans la poursuite des mêmes satellites. Le positionnement différentiel dynamique est une méthode d'étalonnage en temps réel consistant à transmettre des corrections au récepteur distant depuis un ou plusieurs récepteurs de contrôle. Le positionnement GPS différentiel statique consiste à déterminer des vecteurs de ligne de base entre paires de récepteurs. 1, record 2, French, - diff%C3%A9rentiel

The process of determining the relative difference in position between two marks with greater precision than that to which the position of a single point can be determined. 1, record 3, English, - relative%20positioning
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Here, a receiver (antenna) is placed over each spot and measurements are made by observing the same satellites at the same time. This technique allows cancellation (during computations) of all errors which are common to both observers, such as satellite clock errors, propagation delays, etc. See also Translocation and Differential Navigation. 1, record 3, English, - relative%20positioning

Dans ce cas, un récepteur (antenne) est placé ne chacun des points et des mesures sont effectuées par observation simultanée des satellites. Cette méthode permet d'annuler (lors des calculs) toutes les erreurs communes aux deux observateurs, comme les erreurs des horloges des satellites, de temps de propagation, etc. Voir également Transpositionnement et Navigation différentielle. 1, record 3, French, - positionnement%20relatif
