Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 12188-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 23, Tractors and machinery for agriculture and
forestry, Subcommittee SC 19, Agricultural electronics.
ISO 12188 consists of the following parts, under the general title Tractors and machinery for agriculture and
forestry — Test procedures for positioning and guidance systems in agriculture:
⎯ Part 1: Dynamic testing of satellite-based positioning devices
The following parts are under preparation:
⎯ Part 2: Satellite-based auto-guidance systems tested during straight and level travel

Introduction
Satellite positioning devices have become more common in agricultural applications. They are not only used
as position sensors for georeferencing data or site-specific application tasks, but are also part of more
complex navigation systems for agricultural machines.
In the early stages of development of this part of ISO 12188, the only existing standards for satellite-based,
positioning-device performance specification focused on the static accuracy of the device. There was no
existing standard that adequately specified methods for testing or reporting the accuracy of the receivers while
they are in motion. This part of ISO 12188 is intended to fill this void by providing a framework for testing
receivers that are subject to the type of motion typically experienced by receivers used in agricultural field
operations. It provides an implementable methodology for conducting the tests while still providing a means to
equitably compare the performance of different satellite-based positioning devices.

1 Scope
This part of ISO 12188 provides a procedure for evaluating and reporting the accuracy of navigation data
determined using positioning devices that are based on GPS, GLONASS, Galileo or similar global navigation
satellite systems (GNSS). It focuses on the performance of the positioning devices while they are subject to
motions typical of ground-based agricultural field operations and specifies common performance parameters
that can be used to quantify and compare the dynamic performance of different positioning devices.

3.1 General
The following applies for testing.
a) The travel course (TC) shall include at least two straight segments and a U-turn segment. The straight
