KEY ELEMENTS
GNSS Satellites
Satellites provide signals that transmit positioning and timing data to GNSS receivers.
Base station
The base station sends correction data to the rover.
RTK Vehicle Antenna
Rover – receives the GNSS signal and correction data from the base station.
RTK Mapper
A handheld receiver for map-making or pinpointing position.

HOW IT WORKS
RTK, or Real-Time Kinematic positioning, is a sophisticated technology that significantly enhances the accuracy of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) positioning. While conventional GNSS receivers, such as those relying on GPS, provide locational accuracy within a range of 2-4 meters, the RTK technology narrows this down to a remarkable centimeter-level precision.
The architecture of the RTK system is built around three key components: a stationary base station, a mobile receiver (known as the “rover”), and a dedicated data link that connects them. In addition, for more dynamic mapping scenarios, a handheld mapper can be incorporated into the system. The base station maintains a fixed position, serving as an essential reference point, while the rover is attached to vehicles or other moving objects. A significant benefit of this system is the base station’s ability to communicate with multiple rovers simultaneously.
Slopehelper RTK navigation option
The base station sends corrections to Slopehelper and this additional data acts as a countermeasure, rectifying potential discrepancies in the GNSS data introduced by atmospheric and ionospheric variances, nearby building structures, and even weather dynamics.
To reach centimeter-level precision, the base station generates correctional data and transmits it to the rover in real time. This flawless transmission occurs via a dedicated Wi-Fi network established by the base station. Once received, the rover incorporates these corrections into its GNSS positional calculations, guaranteeing exceptional accuracy.
