Quick Links
Our Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) network consists of permanently located GPS receivers, installed across an area, that generates real-time, high-accuracy GPS positioning. All of our permanently installed GPS receivers send their data to a central system via the internet. This central system analyzes the input and adjusts and corrects the data to provide the most accurate locations, usually down to centimeter level. Our networks use the Trimble PIVOT VRS Platform. The generated data is sent from the GPS receiver to the GPS reference network through a wireless connection using the Networked Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol (NTRIP).
Drones
Our real-time GPS network plays a crucial role in keeping drones in designated flight corridors. This aids a multitude of services including critical medical deliveries.
Driverless vehicles
Navigation of driverless vehicles is greatly improved when using a real-time network versus a standard GPS network. Having a reliable network helps keep drivers safe by preventing collisions and keeping vehicles in the appropriate lane.
Monitoring
High-accuracy GNSS networks have been used in science and research to study and better understand the world around us. Our GNSS network can help support Disaster Response Management, agricultural and forestry, landslide monitoring, and more!
Weather
A high-accuracy GNSS network plays a crucial role in meteorology and mitigating the effects of climate change. Real-time measurements can help improve weather predictions, severe weather monitoring, atmospheric modeling, and much more!
