Correction services

To understand the differences between GNSS base stations, Trimble VRS and Trimble RTX services, we recommend this article.

Trimble RTX real-time GNSS corrections are generated by a global network of reference stations that communicate with an RTX server in the cloud. The corrections are available via an internet connection or by a satellite, so that your GNSS receiver can access the corrections from anywhere in the world.

As a satellite-delivered GNSS service with global coverage, CenterPoint RTX becomes an easy option for a wide range of surveying jobs, as it reduces logistics and troubleshooting time in the field and eliminates the need for a daily base station setup/teardown.

Trimble RTX is the ideal choice for GNSS corrections on projects that span large geographic or remote areas, when you need to change locations frequently, or when you need to deploy all your receivers as rovers.

As a correction service with worldwide coverage, delivered via satellite or cellular, you are not tied to one location or region. CenterPoint RTX provides consistent performance globally. Surveyors can stay on a consistent datum and coordinate system and work across borders. CenterPoint RTX is always on so you never lose the accuracy you need in the field, no matter where you are. See the coverage map here.

CenterPoint RTX correction service has exceptional up-time because Trimble uses a worldwide network of reference stations, with redundancy in the entire infrastructure system used to calculate and deliver the correction services. All reference stations, correction solution integrity and delivery mechanisms are monitored 24/7/365 by our global team of network engineers and IT specialists to ensure reliability in worldwide positioning and broadcasting.

CenterPoint RTX acts as positioning insurance for base rover or RTN workflows if you lose radio or cell connection. CenterPoint is the technology that powers Trimble xFill which provides seamless operation during short interruptions of a base station or VRS connection. In xFill mode, you use CenterPoint which is offset to a local coordinate system and limited to “fill-in” for up to 5 min without the original correction source. With CenterPoint RTX subscription, xFill will work indefinitely in xFillx mode.
