    3333Differential GNSS devices such as the GW16143 are starting to replace survey-grade equipment. Other radio cards such as the Gateworks GW16130 Iridium Satellite Modem or GW16132 CAT-M1 modem can provide communication links for the augmentation data. The GW16143 enables precision navigation and automation of moving machinery in industrial applications such as agriculture, mining, and field mapping.

    287246!PointPerfect can get extremely accurate positioning data extremely quickly with relatively low bandwidth (kilobytes / minute). Combined with the [https://trac.gateworks.com/wiki/expansion/gw16126 GW16126] for LTE/Bluetooth, differential fixes can be easily received in hard-to-reach locations.

    289 The easiest way to use !PointPerfect with the ZED-F9P is through [https://github.com/semuconsulting/pygnssutils pygnssutils]. Our examples also leverage the GW16126 for cellular connectivity and were able to get very precise data in a moving vehicle, even with relatively low reception, though !PointPerfect has various delivery methods (NTRIP, MQTT, L-Band). For this example, the script works without too much configuration since Linux automatically configures cellular modems to make connections work seamlessly.

    291250The bare-minimum python program for a NTRIP client with pygnssutils can be found on their [https://github.com/semuconsulting/pygnssutils/blob/main/examples/rtk_example.py git repo]. The data collected was output to a file containing location data over time, and then converted to KML format to be imported into Google Earth.

    293252!PointPerfect uses SPARTN in lieu of RTCM3.x data as it is claimed to be data-saving relative to other NTRIP protocol formats. After around an hour of using the NTRIP service there was only around 500kB of data usage while simultaneously getting centimeter-level accuracy in a moving vehicle (at 1 sample/second location data).

    295256Free-to-use rtk base stations (such as rtk2go.com) or your own base station can be used to get NTRIP corrections for high accuracy without a subscription, but !PointPerfect poses itself as a great solution given it's scalability, security, reliability, and simple integration.
