I don't know if related or not, but years ago there was a system used to improve the accuracy of GPS, in places like harbours. They would put a special transmitter at a site. The exact location of the site was known, and also what error it got from the GPS system, continuously evaluated. A ship would use that information to correct their error from their own GPS receiver by comparison with the error on the site nearby. The resulting precision was maybe one meter. -- Cheers, Carlos.
