About GEODNET RTK Service

GEODNET distributes real-time-kinematic correction data from a decentralised network of multi-constellation, triple-frequency GNSS reference stations. Devices connect to a nearby service mount point through NTRIP and receive RTCM correction streams that reduce common satellite and atmospheric positioning errors.

The service can provide centimetre-level positioning to compatible receivers used in drones, robots, vehicles and surveying equipment. GEODNET monitors station quality continuously and uses geodetic antennas and precise point positioning to validate each node. Customers access the network through subscriptions, APIs and integrations without maintaining their own local reference station.

Context

Market context

GEODNET RTK Service is a centimeter-level GNSS correction network for robots, drones, vehicles and field autonomy workflows.

  • Target environment: Outdoor field environments including farmland, construction sites, survey sites and autonomous vehicle operational areas.
  • Workflow context: High-accuracy positioning for autonomous navigation, precision agriculture, survey and drone operations requiring reliable RTK correction.
  • Customer context: Operators of autonomous robots, drones, agricultural machinery and survey equipment needing reliable positioning infrastructure.
  • Deployment model: Subscription-based network service providing RTK corrections over the internet and radio links.
  • Commercial maturity: Commercially deployed network with growing global coverage.
  • Adoption constraints: Requires internet or radio link to access correction data. Positioning accuracy depends on network coverage density.
  • Market position: Sits in the positioning infrastructure layer rather than the robot hardware layer. Enables higher-accuracy positioning for drones, robots and autonomous vehicles that would…
