    I am wondering - Using a consumer grade GPS, if I capture a location of something that I can easily find on Google Earth ( for instance, a road sign which at least approximated a 'point') and then take fixes on other nearby locations (on the same day of course) can I use the delta between the the Google Earth Lat/Long and my captured lat/long to adjust the other points and improve their accuracy.

    Thanks
