Many machine control systems utilize the Real Time Kinematic (RTK) system to improve the positioning accuracy. There are six dominant manufacturers of machine control systems: iDig, Leica Geosystems, MOBA Mobile Automation AG, Trimble Navigation Limited, Unicontrol and Topcon Positioning Systems. In 2010, The Kellogg Report was published to serve as a resource for comparing the systems from these and other manufacturers. == See also == GPS in the Earthmoving Industry == References == - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 03 - Development Control Rules]] - [[Professional Practice/Construction Management/Quality Control]] - [[Urban and Planning/Urban Regeneration]] - [[Interior Architecture]] - [[Building Services/Building Performance/Moisture Management]] - [[Wiki-Architecture/Buildings and Structures]] - [[Digital Architecture/ePractice/Computational Design]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 06 - Structural Design]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 11 - Sustainability]] - [[Professional Practice/Construction Management/Site Management]]
