    Yes, you can use your phone as a data collector with a GPS rover and an RTK corrections network stream, but I'd leave doing real survey work to a professional land surveyor or you might end up in court with your neighbor after you put up a fence on their property.

      There are always situations where it is wise to hire a land surveyor, but there are even more situations where you can just use your phone with a GNSS receiver for surveying and staking out, because you will get the same results as a professional land surveyor.

      @@Apglos You are assuming people know how to research their deed, their neighbors deeds, compute out the boundary information, tie that information with a cad program, tie into existing monuments, balance them, etc.. Sure, if you know how to do all that, I guess anyone could stake their property lines, but if not, you'll end up hiring a surveyor when you put the fence on your neighbors property.

      Thanks for your comment. Yes you need some pre knowledge to stake property lines. Unfortunately the way to get the data of your property lines is in every country different.

    In my limited experience, the number of satellites my android phone connects with determines the accuracy of my survey point. For example, if my gps app connects to only three or fewer satellites, the point can be off as much as a half mile compared to a survey point fixed with a dozen or more satellites. It also seems the number of satellites an app can connect to is a function of the quality of the app and the location where the point is being measured. Some locations provide better satellite reception than others. If repeated readings at the same location are plus or minus a few seconds, it should be an indication that the point reading is accurate.

      Hi Ken. Thanks for your response. I agree that if you receive more satellite signals that your accuracy increases. Soon we Will launch another video where we will test your other idea that the position is accurate when the position does not change that much.

      + or - a few seconds? One second of latitude or longitude (which is normally different, and based on your location) could range from 80 -100+ feet. That's not what is referred to as accuracy in surveying..to put it lightly.

      The accuracy only has to do with the GNSS receiver and the corrections you use. It has nothing to do with being licensed or not.
