What are Real Time Corrections?
SmartNet North America is available to anyone with any make of GPS/GNSS receiver that can accept RTK or DGPS corrections broadcast by CDMA or GPRS (Mobile phone Internet) from industry standard RTCM 3.1 or 2.3 formats. Different NTRIP (Networked Transport via Internet Protocal) products available under the surveying, construction and agriculture subscription are:
Real-Time Products
Mountpoint
Description
Master Auxiliary Concept
RTCM3_MAX
The only international Network RTK transmission standard and preferred format of Leica Geosystems
Individualized MAX
RTCM3_iMAX or RTCM2_iMAX
Non-Physical method of corrected data from real reference stations
Nearest Site
RTCM3_NEAR or RTCM2_NEAR
Single base corrections from the nearest reference station
Assuming the standard GPS/GNSS RTK protocols and TSA best practice methods are employed for maximum precision, SmartNet typically achieves an RTK rmse accuracy of 10-20mm plan and 15-30mm in height.
So whether you own a Leica Geosystems or another make of GPS/GNSS receiver you are able to gain access to the service for which ever format of corrections you desire.
*Other corrections formats are available on a limited basis, please ask your local representative for additional information
What are Static Corrections?
As an additional service to SmartNet subscribers, there is a free of charge RINEX download facility thru SmartNet SpiderWeb sites. Once you have registered and your account has been activated, you have the ability to login using your provided SmartNet License username(s) and password(s) and download the RINEX data that you need from all of our SmartNet North America sites.
Our SpiderWeb sites also includes other information such as quality monitoring of each individual station, through our GNSS QC software and a unique coordinate computation service embedded within SpiderWeb using Leica Geo Office that allows your raw data to be processed online against the SmartNet reference stations, think of it as our version of OPUS
What does Full Access mean?
Full Access means that once you have registered and your account has been activated, you have complete access to all the suites of service provided by SmartNet North America. You will have access to all our standard user benefits, along with access to real time correction and static corrections using the provided SmartNet License username(s) and password(s). In additional to our data services, you will also have access to our SmartNet Portal which allows you to manage your SmartNet account, re-send Rover License Information, and will soon allow you to see SmartNet usage (including per rover usage and location maps).
What extra benefits do I get with the SmartNet service?
We believe that as a network provider the user requires other value added services above and beyond the corrections themselves. All subscribers therefore have access to the following services as soon as they subscribe.
