Pipeline risk doesnβt always start with a leak.
Sometimes, it starts with a line that moved.
For monitoring teams, repeatability is everything.
Our Network RTK service helps crews document corridors consistently and detect field changes earlier.π

Most GPS gets you within a few meters.
For a self-driving car, that's the wrong lane.
RTK corrects GNSS in real time, down to centimeter level. Together with the car's other sensors, it keeps autonomous systems precise on every move. π°οΈ

Public RTK isn't the same everywhere, strong in some regions, thin or unavailable in others. That matters once RTK is part of a commercial operation.
Working across borders, fleet management, real support for your setup β the value is the platform, not just the corrections. π°οΈ

Kira flies solar thermography in Brazil. At 17m, standard GPS drifts 2 to 5m.

Today, centimeters decide again. β½
A goal or an offside often comes down to a margin barely wider than the ball.
We don't measure soccer. But in the field, that same precision is our work. ππ

RTK Reality Check
Myth: cm accuracy means your data fits.
Reality: precision β the right coordinate frame
Measure to the centimeter, still be off by half a meter, all because the frame is wrong. WGS84, ETRS89 & national datums can differ. Precise & correct aren't the same word
This week we brought RTKdata to Saarland University in Germany.
We showed students what we do: centimeter-level RTK corrections
from 20,000+ stations in 140+ countries, with the hardware they already use.
If you'd stopped by, what would you have asked us? π

Today is International Building Safety Day.
A good day to recognize the surveyors and layout crews who set every footing and bearing wall before the concrete pour.
Their precision keeps the rest of the building safe for decades.

Every transmission tower used to demand a climb. Not anymore.
Drone inspections with Network RTK now cover most of what crews used to climb to find.
Crews still climb. But they know what they're climbing to.
What's your drone-to-climb ratio looking like this year?

A failed RTK link cost AeroAg $37,500 on one job. Five pilots stranded three days.
Switched to RTKdata in about 10 minutes. Free trial, no card, pilot flying again same day.
Now covering three states at 1-2 cm.
Ever been grounded waiting on a fix?

Lost an RTK fix in clean sky?
Corrections probably aren't the issue.
Three things still kill a fix when the correction stream is healthy: blocked sky, RF interference, no cellular.
Spot the cause and the fix is usually quick.
Which one wrecks more of your jobs?
#RTKdata
Receiver isn't what wrecks your day. The corrections feeding it are. Network RTK pulls six constellations so you can drop the base station hassle.
Dropped fixes or hauling bases, what's worse on your jobs this season?

Happy Labor Day.
Thanks to the surveyors, construction crews, farmers, and drone pilots we work with every day.
And to our own team behind the scenes keeping things running. None of it works without you. π°οΈ

A 20 Hz stream of a bad fix is still a bad fix.
βRTK myth: higher update rates = better accuracy.
β Reality:
Hz decides how often you see the position, not how good it is.
Accuracy comes from corrections, fix stability, and signal quality.

Earth Day 2026. π
A tractor running RTK corrections can hold its line to 1β2 cm, pass after pass.
Every centimeter it doesn't drift is fertilizer, fuel and soil the field doesn't lose.
#EarthDay2026
On pipeline projects, the goal isn't to build faster.
It's to make sure the line you built is the line you planned.
Stakeout that holds. Welds logged to survey-grade accuracy. As-built data your GIS team can actually use.
That's what RTK corrections do. π
