Abstract
A method and system are provided for minimizing storage and processing of ionospheric grid point corrections transmitted from WAAS satellites in a global positioning system. Based upon a current location, the system creates a boundary around the current location and collects ionospheric grid point corrections within the boundary. The collected correction points are used to correct the position initially determined by a global positioning system.
