Septentrio, a leader in high-precision GNSS positioning solutions, has announced the start of the Agnostic Corrections Partner Program. This program enables the use of Septentrio receivers with a range of high-accuracy services offering different levels of precision, coverage, and delivery methods. It allows integrators and users to select the most suitable service for their application and business model. However, GNSS-based positioning remains limited by satellite and atmospheric errors that affect accuracy.
Role of GNSS Corrections in High-Accuracy Positioning
To achieve decimeter or centimeter-level accuracy, receivers rely on correction services to compensate for errors. As demand for precise positioning grows with automation, the GNSS corrections ecosystem is expanding, offering varied accuracy levels, delivery methods, and coverage.
Industry Perspective on Flexibility and Integration
“Since GNSS corrections are a fundamental element to high-accuracy positioning, it’s important for customers to have options when integrating GNSS. “With our agnostic approach, we aim to give system integrators greater control and flexibility in using high-accuracy GNSS across industrial and emerging markets,” said Gustavo Lopez, Market Access Manager at Septentrio. Meanwhile, beyond widely used RTK centimeter-level positioning, the market is expanding with more affordable PPP-RTK (SSR) corrections, offering continental coverage, sub-decimeter accuracy, fast convergence, and delivery via internet or satellite.
Partner Ecosystem and Open Integration
The Agnostic Correction Partner Program provides documentation for using Septentrio receivers with high-accuracy services such as Polaris (Point One), Skylark (Swift Navigation), and PointPerfect (u-blox). Integration resources and software code are openly available on GitHub, enabling quick evaluation by integrators and the wider community.
