Twenty years from the first GPS measurements in Serbia: Campaign EPVGI90

Abstract

This paper describes measurements and shows the results of the first GPS campaign taken in Serbia, realized by Military Geographical Institute from Belgrade in July 1990, within its Experimental geodetic network. As a matter of fact, the Military Geographical Institute obtained its first GPS measurements nearby its building in March 1990, during the training with WM102 receivers, but the EPVGI90 campaign was the first 'real' geodetic task accomplished by GPS technology in Serbia.

U radu su opisana merenja i prikazani rezultati prve GPS kampanje u Srbiji, koju je krajem jula 1990. godine preduzeo Vojnogeografski institut iz Beograda na svom Eksperimentalnom poligonu. Formalno uzevši, prva GPS merenja u Srbiji Vojnogeografski institut je izvršio u krugu oko svoje zgrade još u martu iste godine, ali u okviru obuke za rad sa tek nabavljenim dvofrekvencijskim GPS prijemnicima WM102 koji su korišćeni u kampanji EPVGI90. Kampanja EPVGI90 je bila prvi 'pravi' geodetski zadatak realizovan korišćenjem GPS tehnologije.
