Abstract
A method is provided whereby a group of receivers local to one another make GNSS measurements of a number of satellites, from one or multiple different GNSS's, and by combining the measurements of the same satellites made by the different receivers it is possible given sufficient conditions to determine the positions of the receivers and the satellite errors such that the positions obtained are equivalent to those obtained from a traditional differential GNSS system, without the need for a static reference receiver at a known location.
