Hello,

I am a bit confused about the GPS data I have collected.  I am using a Trimble GeoXH with ArcPad 10, GPScorrect, and GPS Analyst.
I set the GPS Preferences Accuracy settings (in ArcPad) to limit data collection to when PDOP is 4.0 or less.  However, when I examine the GPS positions properties in the office (GPS Analyst), the data was collected at a PDOP of 19.  How does that happen?  Have I missed something?

Thanks for your help,
Bea

The slider was set all the way over to the left (Productivity) in GPScorrect.  I realize that the Productivity setting is a very high pdop, but I thought that by setting the pdop to 4 in ArcPad, that it would override the GPScorrect setting.  Is this not so?  Do I have to manage this quality setting in both places (ArcPad and GPScorrect)?

Thanks for your input....
