Abstract
This paper describes the principles of a differential GPS positioning system and offers the converting formulas, which can be used in computers, between the geodetic coordinate used in the GPS and plane rectangular one in the geodetic survey. It also introduces the utility geodetic way which uses a cheaper differential GPS positioning system to do field point geodetic survey in a conventional weapon test base.
