WHAT IS REAL-TIME KINEMATICS AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOUR DRONE

How accurate is accurate enough? If you’re like most land surveyors, the answer is “as much as possible.”

With an RTK drone, surveyors and other kinds of enterprise drone pilots can expect centimeter-level position­ing accuracy with each flight. The system represents a marked improve­ment from satellite data on its own and can help ensure you have the ac­curate information you need to get the job done.

WHAT EXACTLY IS RTK?

Real Time Kinematics, or RTK for short, is a special technique for sat­ellite positioning that can produce accurate results to the centimeter, making it an invaluable tool for sur­veyors around the world. The method involves measuring satellite data against a ground station for precise, real time information.
