Utah's new real-time differential correction service for Global Positioning Systems (GPS) will be available beginning April 16, 2007. This service, named The Utah Reference Network GPS (TURN GPS) will provide a high accuracy GPS correction signal for surveyors and GIS mapping. Phase I will cover an area roughly from Logan south to Manti and from Tabiona west to Tooele. TURN GPS services are administered by AGRC and will be available on a subscription basis according to a Legislature approved rate schedule.
TURN GPS will greatly increase productivity, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of high accuracy GPS work by eliminating the need to setup and takedown temporary GPS base stations and repeaters for each project.
