Positioning performance

Precision and reliability may be subject to anomalies due to multipath, obstructions, satellite geometry, and atmospheric conditions. The specifications stated recommend the use of stable mounts in an open sky view, EMI and multipath clean environment, optimal GNSS constellation configurations, along with the use of survey practices that are generally accepted for performing the highest-order surveys for the applicable application including occupation times appropriate for baseline length. Baselines longer than 30 km require precise ephemeris and occupations up to 24 hours may be required to achieve the high precision static specification.

RTK start-up time for specified precisions

2 to 8 seconds

Network RTK PPM values are referenced to the closest physical base station. RTK precision times may be affected by atmospheric conditions, signal multipath, obstructions and satellite geometry. Positioning reliability is continuously monitored to ensure highest quality.

Trimble RTX Technology (Satellite and Cellular/Internet (IP))

RTX convergence time for specified precisions - Worldwide

< 15 minutes

RTX QuickStart convergence time for specified precisions

< 1 minute

RTX convergence time for specified precisions in select regions (Trimble RTX Fast Regions)

< 1 minute

RMS performance based on repeatable in field measurements. Achievable accuracy and initialization time may vary based on type and capability of receiver and antenna, user’s geographic location and atmospheric activity, scintillation levels, GNSS constellation health and availability and level of multipath including obstructions such as large trees and buildings.

Trimble xFill

 

Horizontal

RTK + 10 mm/minute RMS

Vertical

RTK + 20 mm/minute RMS

Accuracies are dependent on GNSS satellite availability. xFill positioning without a Trimble CenterPoint RTX subscription ends after 5 minutes of radio downtime. xFill positioning with a CenterPoint RTX subscription will continue beyond 5 minutes providing the Trimble RTX solution has converged, with typical precisions not exceeding 6 cm horizontal, 14 cm vertical or 3 cm horizontal, 7 cm vertical in Trimble RTX Fast regions. xFill is not available in all regions, check with your local sales representative for more information.

RTK refers to the last reported precision before the correction source was lost and xFill started.
