Accurate GNSS positioning empowers GIS professionals to collect data with precision, driving smarter decisions in urban planning, agriculture, and more. This article explores key applications of centimeter-level GPS and how it enhances GIS workflows across industries.

A correctly set-up base station is essential for accurate GNSS surveys in RTK. Since your rover’s coordinates are only as accurate as the base’s placement, any shift in the base will directly affect the rover’s measurements. Learn the key steps for setting up a base.

The Sostremetries team set out to fix Corsica’s outdated mountain lists using high-precision GNSS technology. By combining Emlid Reach RS2+ and RS3 receivers with LiDAR and digital terrain models, they redefined what counts as a summit.

You’ve probably heard of the NMEA data format. We’ve explained what it means and how Reach receivers transmit data in NMEA format to GIS apps and various devices.

Mobile or robotic mapping and surveying solutions are evolving to enable rapid data collection over large areas. Read how Reach integrates seamlessly with different types of machinery, how it enables mobile mapping and robotic surveying, and how it can elevate your operations.

Learn two methods for obtaining RTK corrections for surveying workflows: using an NTRIP service or your own base station. This information will help you choose the best method for your application.

A detailed article on the development of mapping technology is out! Check it to get to know the milestones before the GNSS receivers were used in modern mapping.

The first Reach RS2+ users shared how they implemented the receiver into an architect’s daily routine, construction site management and used it as a base for drones.

Discover how to benefit from Reach in land surveying. Our user from Ohio, USA, shared his experience of implementing Reach RS2 with FieldGenius for a mortgage surveying business.

You can connect Reach receivers with the ArcGIS Survey123 app using both iOS and Android devices. Check out the detailed guide to connecting Reach with the app.
