The ultimate guide to setting up a GNSS base for centimeter accuracy https://blog.emlid.com/the-ultimate-guide-to-setting-up-a-gnss-base-for-centimeter-accuracy/ The ultimate guide to setting up a GNSS base for centimeter accuracy

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.
