The Benchmark Survey System, developed for the U.S. Air Force's Holloman High Speed Test Track. replaces legacy NGA conventional survey techniques with a GPS-only system, maintaining sub-millimeter positioning accuracy while increasing throughput by 400 percent, with an 85 percent decrease in manpower. Results agree with recent NGA precise survey data to better than 0.6 mm horizontal and better than 1.0 mm vertical.
