Abstract: Based on the current state of technology, distance measurements over a few hundred metres in air with relative uncertainties significantly better than 10_6 are still an almost impossible challenge. In the European Joint Research Project (JRP) “Metrology for long distance surveying” measurement uncertainties in GNSS-based and optical distance metrology are going to be thoroughly investigated, novel technologies and primary standards developed and guidelines to improve surveying practice in the field worked out. A better understanding and a decrease of measurement uncertainty is also targeted for the critical local tie measurement at geodetic fundamental stations.
