7. Mobile Mapping

This guide presents the Mobile Mapping function in its
simplest implementation, i.e. using the ProMark3's internal
antenna and with no differential mode enabled.
With a ProMark3 RTK using an external antenna, Mobile
Mapping can also be run in RTK mode, thus offering the same
accuracy level as in surveying.
Once you know how to perform RTK surveys with
ProMark3 RTK (see RTK Setup on page 11), it's easy to
understand how you can extend the use of RTK to Mobile
Mapping. However, the current position status ("Float",
"Fixed", etc.) can only be seen on the Position screen (see
page 70).
