Real Time Positioning, Purdue Ect Team
ECT Fact Sheets
Construction operations involve location and positioning elements in the field. There are two primary components to the system; transmitters and receivers. The system allows multiple users to work at the same time once the system is set up. These users can include surveyors, craft people, and equipment operators each of whom is working concurrently and using the positioning system to capture accurate real-time position information about the work environment.
