Abstract
In today’s world, Global Positioning System (GPS) for tracking system plays an important role in tracking required locations. To obtain accurate location in developing the proposed system, several issues. Although Differential-GPS (DGPS) system is expensive, GPS module may have some errors and does not provide the accurate position information of the location. Therefore, the required location needs to have an accurate correction and improvement which can be achieved using DGPS technique. In this research, the proposed technique improves the position of the required location utilizing U-blox Neo 6 M receiver GPS module. With the proposed method, the position of the location is improved within 1–3 m.
