GPS Accuracy
The accuracy of a position determined with GPS depends on the type of receiver.
Most hand-held GPS units have about 8-15 metre accuracy.
When the system was created, timing errors were inserted into GPS transmissions to limit the accuracy of non-military GPS receivers to about 100 metres.
This part of GPS operations, called Selective Availability, was eliminated in October 2000.
