Kiah D asked:


Trying to start a small GIS business on my own… already have the LLC and domain name and what not..have also been networking and possibly have some small contracts potentially lined up. I am trying to focus on things like utility mapping or something, but I could definitely broaden out. What programs, extensions, and GPS instrumentation would it take for me to get started and what do you think the intitial cost would be?

Thanks a ton!

From what I understand, Lorentz transformations can determine the dilation of time with relative speed. (Of course I could be wrong). How does the GPS use this to function?
