Get started with Ardupilot If you’re developing a project related to unmanned vehicles like drones (UAVs), rovers, boats, or even submarines, enabling autonomous navigation requires integrating autopilot with a precise GNSS/RTK location system. While the integration process can be challenging, we have prepared this article to help you to get started. What are ArduPilot, Flight […]

How to install a low cost base station for your DJI RTK drone Precision GNSS positioning is crucial for drone operations requiring centimeter-level accuracy, such as mapping, surveying, and agriculture. In areas without NTRIP services or stable internet, setting up a base station becomes necessary. DJI’s RTK system provides real-time correction data for precise positioning,

Locus GIS is a professional GIS application for collecting and updating field geodata, creating points and lines etc. The software offers a free basic subscription which is suitable for simple geospatial tasks, and paid premium subscription options. Locus GIS includes a built-in NTRIP client that allows users to connect to an NTRIP correction service directly

GPS/GNSS signals travel 20’000 kilometers from the satellite until your GNSS receiver. It is not easy, but is technically possible, to artificially generate a fake GNSS signal from a ground station, that can confuse your GNSS receiver to think it’s elsewhere. You might have read in the news lately that this is increasingly a problem

PointMan is a paid software that captures, records, and displays the location of utilities and pipelines. It can be used with the ArduSimple Professional kit for mapping purposes. You may also want to add to this setup EM locate equipment like a cable or pipe locator to detect the location of buried cables and pipes.
