I'm going to use pretty much the exact setup you demo'd on my farm to lay out horse fencing and arena work. Literally would not be possible without you guys!! This might be the best product you've released!
Receiving the L2 signal is one thing... Getting a fix in an unobstructed parking lot also... Now in real world we have multipath, I'm curious about how the ublox chip is capable of handling those more realistic scenarios....
@@trollenz agreed. That would be interesting to see. By the way, I’m currently using another relatively inexpensive GPS receiver (Polaris S100) along with Microsurvey Field Genius running on a cheap android tablet. So far the results have been very comparable to a Trimble R2 system w/ TSC-3 controller that cost more than ten times as much. Moreover, the Field Genius software is much easier to use, in my opinion, than the Trimble stuff, at least for what we’re doing.
@@dbackscott sorry, haven't seen your message... Well actually a pretty good tip I'm gonna look into that. I'm using Novatel receiver boards (OEM628) that I got cheap on eBay... Works very good, but it's a bit of a hassle, using WinCE makes me nauseous every time. Doesn't work well with fieldgenius... Are you talking about Android version that works with the S100 ? Thanks.
I’m not a surveyor but this is something that would be useful for environmental technicians when we’re plotting sample grids in the field! I may look into just buying one to make my life easier since they’re affordable enough and the accuracy is more than adequate!
i do hope app such Survey Master, Nuwa, and other survey app will work on this. these are very important features we need as land surveyor 1. can apply base shift or point correction so we can use local grid coordinates system 2. can stake out points
I'd really like to use this for static or rapid static observations in addition to occasional RTK since a lot of my work involves conventional surveying with my total station. Gonna look into it further.
Looks like an amazing product! Congrats to the design team. Instead of using a radio to transmit the differential signal, how about using 2 lora nodes that operate in the licence free ism band. Yes it will be much slower, but without the need for a radio license
I won't have time to do a full hookup guide any time soon, but there's a great hookup guide here (learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sparkfun-rtk-surveyor-hookup-guide/all) that should be able to guide you through it.
hi there.. my main concern is, can we configure it using android phone? like entering previous coordinates on the base in case of returning back on previous survey area?
I have two of this same products. One as a rover and other as a base station. But I found some difficulties connecting the rover. How do we know the base statin is talking to the rover. Whom do I contact to clarify this doubts ?
This guy conviced me to buy the OLA and some interesting stuff, he's a cool dude!! does he appears on any tiktok, twitter, face or insta from Sparfun?...how can I add a quiic button to the OLA???
Awesome! I have been using a Trimble R10 for a while, but its starting price is outrageous! This is a wonderful inexpensive surveying solution. Does this product output a NMEA stream?
Yes, it will transmit full NMEA sentences over Bluetooth Serial port profile. You can get a much more in-depth look at it and its capabilities here learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sparkfun-rtk-surveyor-hookup-guide
Anything from Trimble or Leica - even if it's only a stupid plastic adapter - will cost you a kidney, that's the absolute bare minimum... But with Chinese copies and DIY boards... It's about to change...
Yes, that's correct, when set as a base unit (rather than a rover unit). Nathan has written a couple of hookup guides that looks a little deeper at this. Take a look here for a good start learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sparkfun-rtk-surveyor-hookup-guide
You can use one by itself as a rover module, but using a second one as a base module in conjunction with the rover will yield greater accuracy. I won't be able to get a hookup video done in the near future, but there's a solid hookup guide here learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sparkfun-rtk-surveyor-hookup-guide/all
It would be nice to know if this device could be configured to do non-RTK surveys via collecting raw data. It would be sweet if a button could be configured to start a raw collect and then pressed again to stop the collect. Each collect being stored to an sd card in ubx format for post processing. Quite often RTK is just not worth the hassle or possible.
Yes, you can! On android Works well with "Lefebure Ntrip Caster" and "Bluetooth GNSS" just open the app,( you must turn on mock location first) turn on the sparkfun module... and hit "conect" on your Phone
@@texasapps2595 mainly we used radio mode for correction. if incase of returning on a previous survey area, how are goin to input the previous coordinates? do we need an laptop to enter previous known point?
@@geotek6748 yes, you'll need it. In survey-in mode you have an option to input a known X Y Z coordinates. After that the module will start to fix the position in Real time.
@@texasapps2595 gracias aplicaiones texas me as librado un monton de tiempo, Probe con las dos y me gusta mas BLUETOOH GNSS, muy buen equipo y ahora si puedo usar en mi aplicacion favorita el mobile topographer.
@@Peakabike We're having a hard time keeping them in stock. We're building up another batch right now, but I believe that it's supply chain issues that are severely limiting the number of units we're able to build. Then the stock covers backorders before being released for general sale. Hopefully supply chain issues will start to minimize in the coming months, but the best chance for getting one right now would probably be to backorder it.
I use the "do it yourself" sparkfun módulos that is exactly the same... I use it with Ntrip Caster or Bluetooth GNSS app... and then I see the data on Mobile Topographer Pro app or Google Maps
@@felixrunge1406 I didn't find it on androids PlayStore... I use one of these apps to conect the module with my android: lefebure, Bluetooth Gnss, U-center or SW Maps, and I see the data on Mobile Topographer Pro or SW Maps. Depends on what kind of survey I need.
@@brad3378 everything will depend on weather you have an unobstructed view of the sky or not. Neighbouring buildings will cause multipath : reflection of satellite signal that will degrade your positioning quality, interruption of signal caused by foliage and branches will often cause the receiver to lose the fixed position... It's very hard to figure...

All of us DIY surveyors are saying, "That's the project I was building!"
Nice job!
I have to say "That's exactly my project!" Even with 2 switches for modes base/rover and on/off jajajajajaja exactly my project!!!!
I’m a civil engineer. I can say from experience that the professional gps survey systems typically don’t do better than 14 mm.

Would be good with an inclinometer. Then you can have the pole tilted, and adjust for the tilt of the pole.

Please record a video, where you can see how to configure Ntrip with a cell phone. Greetings from Peru.
Have a question pls. With this setup we can setup a stationay always online basestation sending correction data to a ntrip server?

This can be used to surveyng whit drones?
Cool info, thanks :)
"Millimetre accuracy positioning".... Let's not get carried away 😉
How close to a RTK base station do you have to be for the device to give high accuracy? 10 miles? 100 miles?
30 miles max
The cars in the tracking map weren't in the video with him. Can you please help me understand why?
It's Google Maps, not a live map !
Awesome!
Too bad the thing is sold out with no shipping date

Yeah gonna take some time for it to become mainstream.
Ummm, there is no millimeter precision GPS anywhere. I work with a major brand name GPS vendor and I can back my statement up.
