About this course:
- To give a comprehensive introduction to GPS and DGPS technology, system concepts, design, operation, implementation and applications.
- To provide detailed information on the GPS signal, its processing by the receiver, and the techniques by which GPS obtains position, velocity and time.
- To present current information on the status, plans, schedule and capabilities for GPS, as well as for other satellite-based systems with position determination applications.
- To fill in technical information gaps for those working in GPS.

Who should attend:
Excellent for engineering staff who need to be rapidly brought up to speed on GPS, and for those already working in GPS who need exposure to the system as a whole, in order to work more effectively.

447: Applied Kalman Filtering (4.5 days)
Dr. Larry Levy (June 2-6, 2008)
http://www.navtechgps.com/seminars/GPScourses/sem447.asp

About this course:
This course is a highly intensive short course on Kalman filtering and Kalman filtering applications. Emphasis in the course is on practical applications, but sufficient supporting theory is provided to give attendees the necessary tools for meaningful research and development work in the field. Considerable time is devoted to modeling, the most difficult aspect of Kalman filtering, in an application setting.

There will be a high level of instructor/attendee interaction, designed to provide hands-on problem solving and solution discussions. The learning experience will also be supplemented by homework assignments to assist attendees in improving their understanding of course concepts.
