A mobile satellite navigation receiver for calculating an offset between a local positioning system and a wide-area satellite positioning system is presented. The mobile satellite navigation receiver determines a first solution of a position of the mobile satellite navigation receiver relative to a first local positioning system, wherein the first local positioning system includes one or more reference receivers at known locations. The mobile satellite navigation receiver determines a second solution of the position of the satellite navigation receiver relative to a wide-area differential satellite positioning system. The mobile satellite navigation receiver then calculates an offset between the first solution and the second solution.
