Topnet Live GNSS Network Expands

Topcon is expanding the Topnet Live Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) network of correction solutions to support today’s work environments. 

New service options include Realpoint, the Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) service, and Starpoint, a Precise Point Positioning (PPP) service. The different services have varying delivery methods, coverage, and centimeter-level accuracy. Customers can purchase to suit their needs. Additionally, an RTK service supported by PPP, Skybridge, is available to maintain connectivity and productivity if the customer temporarily leaves RTK coverage.

OEMs supplying automotive, industrial Internet of Things (IoT), autonomous robotics, and all sectors that require positioning, navigation, and guidance can sell their hardware with correction services onboard and preconfigured for immediate use by customers, regardless of geographic location.

Topnet Live uses all four GNSS constellations: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou. The service also offers:

Survey, Construction and Machine Control. Topnet Live removes the need for individual base stations.

OEMs, System Integrators, Product Designers. The solution provides precise positioning and supports the implementation of flexible business models.
