Wow... I wish. With differential GPS you can get down to centimeters, but the iPhone doesn't have that. Would make for a cool app though. You could actually somehow network 4 or 5 iphones and increase the accuracy of them all.

Look up PPS, SPS, and SAASM. I can guarantee you that mil GPS is still more accurate (and more bulky).
