The accuracy of the measurement method has been analysed on the basis of the results obtained in both horizontal and vertical planes. The track axis deviation from the defined geometric shape has been analysed in the areas clearly defined in terms of geometry, i.e. on the straight sections and sections with constant longitudinal inclination. The values of measurement errors have been estimated on the basis of signals subjected to appropriate processes of filtration. The paper attempts to evaluate the changing possibilities of using the GNSS techniques to determine the shape of the railway track axis from 2009 to 2015. The determined average value of the measurement error now equals a few millimetres. This achievement is very promising for the prospects of mobile satellite measurements in railway engineering.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Accuracy assessment of mobile satellite measurements in relation to the geometrical layout of rail tracks}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/111966/PDF/08_MMS-2019-2_06-12.pdf}, doi={10.24425/mms.2019.128359}, keywords={positioning data processing, track geometric layout, GNSS satellite surveying, horizontal andvertical accuracy evaluation}, }
