Your GNSS operations are only as good as your correction source, it’s important to choose the right one for your business.
Flexibility for Your Business
GNSS correction sources are available on-site in a variety of ways, depending on what you need for your jobsite. Choose to run a local base station on site, obtain corrections from a local VRS Now network service or even obtain corrections from the satellite delivered CenterPoint RTX correction service.
Correction Source Comparison
Use the technical specifications below to decide on the source that makes sense for your workflow and performance and precision requirements.
GNSS Correction Sources
If you are running a large operation with many machines, you will need a local GNSS base station (or a few) and if you are site surveying or doing reconnaissance you may opt for a high accuracy satellite delivered service such as CenterPoint RTX.
Trimble GNSS Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Base Station
For larger construction sites and those that include both site positioning and machine control operations, we recommend you deploy the Trimble R750 GNSS Modular Receiver as a permanent or semi-permanent base station.
For additional information on which external antenna to choose for your base station, please visit the Trimble GNSS Antennas for Construction web page, or contact your SITECH Technology Provider or Trimble Marine Dealer.
