The purpose of this paper is to perform a statistical analysis based on many factors that influence accuracy of determining the coordinates of the points in the forestry sector, points determined by GPS technology, the method used is Stop-and-go. Factors influencing the accuracy of determining the points are: composition stands, consistent, age, land orography, exhibition etc. This paper aims forests that are under the administration of RPLP PC Zarnesti, area where there is already a GIS project, which includes the observations on the factors that influence accuracy, listed above, and coordinates obtained from measurements made by GPS technology. The conclusion resulting from the statistical analysis performed is that the accuracy of determining the coordinates of the points by GPS technology is greater on heights and much weaker on valleys with North-South exhibition.
