Maximizing Gps Accuracy And Precision - Pogo Turf Pro System Manual

Maximizing the GPS Accuracy and Precision
 All GPS systems require correction to precisely position the point being measured. This is done on the monitoring equipment
(expensive) or through post analytics. POGO utilizes an advanced corrective toolset on the POGO Turf Pro cloud system
 The POGO's GPS chipset is a sub-meter accuracy system. To gain this level of accuracy and precision, it is important that the POGO is
allowed to get a strong fix with satellites
 To achieve the strongest fix, turn the POGO on 10 minutes prior to your first sample. Allow the POGO view of the sky during this
process. Most will turn the unit on and leave it exposed in the utility cart using a mounting device like PVC tubing clamped to the cart
 At any time, the POGO GPS button will indicate the number of satellites in view. 9 or more satellites generally gives the best results.
11 to 12 is excellent reception. Fewer than 9 satellites may require some correction on the POGO Turf Pro cloud system
 Leave the POGO 'On' throughout your sampling period of time. The batteries are capable of lasting far beyond a day of heavy use so it
is advised you keep the POGO on throughout the time period you will sample in order to maintain a strong GPS fix
 Charge the POGO at the end of the day so it is a full charge for the next day
 Do not turn the POGO on and off in-between zones
 It is better to have a clamp or holding device for the POGO rather than putting it in the case while in the on position. The case in the
closed position can disrupt the connectivity with the satellites
