Abstract
This paper deals with the satellite global positioning (GPS or GLONASS ) in marine cartography. It especially points out its limitations and the convenience of the differential mode both in hydrographic surveys and precise navigation carried out in channels, rivers, port and harbo ur approaches or offshore operations.
