Estimation of heading gyrocompass error using a GPS 3DF system: Impact on ADCP measurements
Scientia Marina, 2002 Traditionally the horizontal orientation in a ship (heading) has been obtained from a gyrocompass. This instrument is still used on research vessels but has an estimated error of about 2-3 degrees, inducing a systematic error in the cross-track velocity ...
