The SurPad 4.2 program is deservedly considered one of the most popular and affordable software solutions for geodetic research. Thanks to its wide range of functional capabilities and versatility, it is used by both professionals and newcomers in the field of geodesy. Let’s take a closer look at what makes this program unique and why it is an excellent choice for solving geodetic tasks.

For over 15 years, Geometer has been a trusted supplier of high-precision GNSS solutions for land surveying, precision agriculture, and other industries. We aim to create products that perfectly meet our clients’ needs, ensuring the optimal balance of price and functionality.

GNSS RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) technology enables high-precision positioning using GNSS receivers, making it indispensable in many fields such as agriculture, surveying, construction, and other areas where centimeter-level accuracy is crucial. However, sometimes during the RTK setup process, issues may arise: the receiver may not switch from DGNSS to RTK mode, or corrections may not be received properly.

Modern geodetic tasks can be significantly simplified through the use of devices based on the Android platform. Special attention should be given to tablets, which, unlike phones, offer several important advantages. 

DSM Stakeout (Digital Surface Model Stakeout) is a process related to surveying and construction, in which digital surface models (DSM) are used to perform stakeout in the field. This method allows surveyors or builders to accurately set point coordinates on-site according to a pre-created digital surface model, which includes all objects on the ground, such as buildings, trees, bridges, and other elements.

In modern agriculture, it is crucial for every farmer to quickly and accurately measure land plots. This task is especially relevant when hiring contractors for fieldwork since calculations are based on the processed areas in hectares.

The use of GNSS RTK technology in the agricultural sector enables the implementation of modern cultivation methods, optimizes machinery operations and human resources, and significantly saves fuel and other materials through automation and high precision in task execution.

For performing surveying tasks related to working with official documentation, searching for or allocating land parcels within Ukraine’s coordinate systems (SC-63 or UCS-2000), we recommend using the geodetic CORS GNSS RTK network. 

In today's agricultural business environment, where every penny counts, optimizing costs is crucial for maintaining stable growth and competitiveness. A key area that demands particular attention is land resource management, especially when it comes to acquiring new land plots and establishing boundaries through surveying work.

Раді повідомити про значне зниження ціни на наш мультичастотний GNSS RTK приймач GEORA. Цей високоточний прилад є незамінним інструментом для геодезичних та землевпорядних робіт, а також для будь-яких завдань, де важлива сантиметрова точність визначення координат.

Surveying allows for the precise determination of boundaries, area, and position of a plot relative to a coordinate system. The primary characteristic of a boundary is the coordinates of key points, not the length. These coordinates are determined during surveying work.

The PPP technology allows for receiving free satellite corrections directly from the European satellite system. It involves additional data transmission channels on the e6b frequency from the GALILEO satellite system. Let’s take a closer look at the GALILEO HAS satellite correction technology, which is available on all continents and provides an improvement in the accuracy of absolute coordinates up to 20 cm. We will also compare it with RTK and Smooth Mode technologies.
