Connecticut Department of Transportation CORS Installation – GPS Project

Project Description:
The project involves the installation of nine continuously operating reference stations (CORS) located at Connecticut Department of Transportation (CT DOT) maintenance facilities throughout the state. The CORS will provide GPS data from a known, coordinated reference station thereby allowing other State survey crews or private surveying companies to compute geodetic positions at field locations anywhere within (or outside) the State of Connecticut, depending on the accuracy desired.
