Agnostic Corrections Program - GNSS correction services compatible with Septentrio receivers

Septentrio Agnostic GNSS Corrections Program explained in 2 minutes

GNSS-based positioning is limited in accuracy due to several errors caused by GNSS satellites as well as the Earth’s atmosphere. To compensate for these errors and achieve decimeter or even centimeter-level accuracy the receiver needs to get additional information from a corrections service. As the demand for high-accuracy positioning is increasing with our ever-growing reliance on automation, the GNSS corrections ecosystem is rapidly expanding with new services offering varying levels of accuracy, delivery methods and geographical coverage.

The Agnostic Corrections Partnership Program goal is to provide options to customers and integrators around the globe to realize high accuracy positioning with Septentrio products as alternative to dedicated base stations or local RTK networks.This program facilitates the use of Septentrio receivers with various high-accuracy services, which offer varying levels of accuracy, coverage and delivery methods. This also allows integrators and users to select the service which is most suitable for their specific application and business model​. The partners shown below offer services compatible with Septentrio products. ​While each service is well supported directly by our partners, Septentrio provides additional guidelines, integration code and open-source integration resources of various correction services, that users can start from to enable Septentrio receivers to access and use these 3rd party corrections​.

You can find more information about how to integrate the different services in our support portal.
