Reach RS2 Accuracy: Case Study from Australia

Brian Blakeman Surveys (BBS), a company providing professional land survey services in the Northern Territory, Australia, completed an in-depth case study of the Reach RS2 performance. The BBS team tested the Reach RS2 accuracy and usability in a wide range of field scenarios. The crucial part of the research was comparing the Reach accuracy against the benchmarks. As a result, Reach showed reliable centimeter accuracy in the RTK survey.

Reach RS2 Accuracy against Benchmarks

The surveyors assessed the performance of Reach RS2 and another traditional receiver against two benchmarks using a local base. The tests were done using MGA94 Zone 53 and ellipsoidal heights. 

Ultimately, Reach RS2 showed cm-accurate results of the observations against the known coordinates. The table below summarises the devices’ performance.
