The NPORS N050 3D GPS Machine Control System course provides theory and practical training in preparing, checking and using 3D GPS/GNSS machine-control technology. It covers system components, GNSS and RTK principles, digital models, in-cab guidance, accuracy checks and basic fault finding.

Who this course suits
Machine operators working in earthworks, grading or excavation who need to use 3D GPS/GNSS machine-control technology.

Learning outcomes
• Explain how 3D GPS/GNSS machine control supports earthworks and distinguish between 2D and 3D systems.
• Identify the main hardware, software, GNSS, RTK and in-cab display components.
• Complete start-up, pre-use, position and basic calibration checks.
• Select the correct project, digital model, coordinate system, linework and working surface.
• Use cut-and-fill guidance, offsets and the in-cab display during relevant plant operations.
• Check accuracy, manage project or as-built data and communicate important information.
• Recognise common faults, carry out basic operator checks and know when to seek support.
