Coverage
Where each service works.
Loading the map…
PPP needs your rover file alone: precise satellite orbits and clocks replace the base. It works anywhere, on land and at sea.
With the RINEX of your own base, differential processing works anywhere. With a virtual base ordered in the same step, it works inside the virtual RINEX coverage.
A virtual RINEX is computed from the reference stations around your point: by interpolation inside the network, and by extrapolation a short way beyond its edge.
Indicative zone: it does not guarantee a virtual RINEX for a given point and day. The order form checks your exact point and window before any credit is used.
Summary
What each service needs, and where.
The coverage depends on what you supply. Your own base file removes any limit; a virtual base or a virtual RINEX needs reference stations around your point.
| Service | Where | What you supply |
|---|---|---|
| PPP, static or kinematic | Anywhere | Your rover file |
| PPK with your own base | Anywhere | Your rover file and your base file |
| PPK with a virtual base | Virtual RINEX coverage | Your rover file |
| Virtual RINEX | Virtual RINEX coverage | A position and a time window |
Check your point before you order
The order form checks coverage live for your position and window, and shows the indicative coverage zone on a map. The check is free, and an order outside the coverage is refused before any credit is used.
