Network Real Time Kinematic (RTK) Service

This service provides data stream for correcting some of the error sources of GNSS positioning. Centimeter level accuracy could be achieved subject to the user equipment and site condition. Users can obtain the correctional data stream via the internet. It can be applied in topographic mapping, monitoring of structural movement (e.g. building, bridge), machine guidance, etc.

Differential GNSS (DGNSS) Positioning Service

The SatRef system produces the DGNSS correctional data stream to users by means of the SatRef NTRIP server. Users can obtain the DGNSS correctional data stream via the internet. The real-time positional accuracy of DGNSS is about 1-2m. It can be applied in navigation (land and sea), fleet management, location based services, mobile GIS systems, etc.

Application

If you want to apply this service (Free of charge), please fill in the application form and return it by fax or email to geodetic@landsd.gov.hk.

*1 In order to fulfill the requirement of RTCM Standard, the 7-P datum transformation parameters transmitted in Message Type 1021 are slightly different from the published 7P_ITRF96_HK80_V1.0 data sheet.
(Rotation parameters: round to the nearest 0.00002"; Scale: round to the nearest 0.00001ppm)

Remark:

1. For more details, please refer to NTRIP source table.
