Reply to "GPS accuracy for location of a point"

oscarwagnerMember

Hello ADMIN: Which phone are you using to get coordinates? Do you check "accuracy" with app like Solocator before recording? On my 12, I get fluctuating 9' and 13' indications. You seem to be proving the point that if the accuracy is right though, eventually indicated points will surround the correct point.

"Measure" app thing just gets crazier. Guy at work showed me "Measure" on his iPhone6 (probably a 6S) yesterday and it did fine on 10'. Net says you can run it on any machine with IOS 12.0 or newer which it goes on to say it iPhone6S or later. This is the icon.So you may be able to use this with much less phone than I thought.

I tried it on 1,000' cal course and got 998' 5" moving maybe 3 feet / sec. Confusing info on Apple website talks about using LiDAR right next to info about this app but you can do a lot with a much older phone and plain old Measure app.
