Engineering Services: Custom development and integration services for OEM customers and system integrators.

There are 3 ways of getting centimeter level position

A. With access to correction service via internet (also called NTRIP)

Most countries have deployed RTK networks to support surveyors in the territory, sometimes for free. Some users publish their base stations online for free. Ultimately you can get a paid subscription from an NTRIP Service Provider.

B. A base station and a rover working together (up to 35km from each other)

If you want to be completely independent from services, you can decide to install your own base station. This will allow you to travel with the rover within a 35km range from it.

C. RTK Receiver with integrated correction service subscription

If option A and B are not for you, or you find them too complicated, there is an option of getting a RTK receiver with integrated RTK-SSR correction service subscription. We take care of everything, literally just plug and start enjoying centimeter level precision.
