Orbitas Correct, powered by Point One Navigation, expands to provide Virtual RTK and True RTK corrections If you’re a geospatial professional that relies on accurate positioning for GIS spatial analysis, mapping, or informed decision making, then you probably use an RTK (real-time kinematic) correction service. The level of accuracy required for your data collection may […]
Getting the most out of Futura FieldPro with Asteri GNSS Receivers If you work for an electric cooperative or utility company and use Futura GIS for spatial analysis, mapping, or decision making, then chances are you’re using Futura FieldPro for your customer service and asset management. The level of accuracy needed for your data collection […]
Advancements in Timekeeping and How to Prepare for Disruptions from Increased Solar Activity NIST-F4 Atomic Clock Paves the Way for Improved Positional Accuracy In late April, Scientists at the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) published results for a new atomic clock, the NIST-F4. If the NIST-F4 started ticking 100 million years ago, it […]
As urbanization and infrastructure development continue to accelerate, pinpointing the precise location of our subsurface and above-ground assets is more critical than ever. In the past, utility professionals relied on outdated and often inaccurate data gathered through “pen and paper” methods. This resulted in errors, costly damage to underground assets, and slower response times to […]
How GPS, GNNS, RTK, and PPP Differ and Work Together Satellite navigation relies on a global network of satellites that transmit radio signals from medium earth orbit, an altitude of approximately 2,000 to 36,000 kilometers (1,243 to 22,300 miles). Satellites used for navigation are equipped with atomic clocks that provide extremely accurate time and these […]
March Highlights and Insights Spring has arrived and March is nearly over, but before we look ahead at what April has in store we’d like to reflect on what March had to offer; where we’ve gone, who we met, and what we learned. 2025 TechAdvantage We kicked off our 2025 conference tour at TechAdvantage, where […]
