PPP GNSS: Corrections, Convergence Time and Accuracy Explained
Precise Point Positioning (PPP) is a GNSS positioning technique that allows a single receiver to achieve centimeter-level accuracy without a base station. But how does PPP actually work? Why does it take 10–40 minutes to converge? And what is the realistic accuracy that PPP can achieve? In this guide, we break it down in plain…

RTK GNSS Explained: How Real-Time Kinematic Achieves Centimeter Accuracy
For years, Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) has been a fundamental technology in surveying, drone mapping, construction, precision agriculture, and robotics. While standard GNSS positioning typically provides meter-level accuracy, RTK dramatically improves this to centimeter-level accuracy in real time by using carrier-phase measurements and differential observations from a nearby reference station. But how exactly does it work?…
