Precise Point Positioning (PPP)

To prepare, configure, and start a GNSS survey with PPP enabled.


Precise Point Positioning (PPP) is a centimeter level positioning engine that combines dual frequency code and carrier phase measurements by GNSS receiver and data on precise orbits and clocks of navigation satellites. PPP corrections data is broadcast to customer receivers in two ways:

MAGNET Field supports PPP engine in specific GNSS survey configurations:


Prerequisites for enabling PPP in GNSS receiver and MAGNET Field


How to enable PPP in MAGNET Field

Create a GNSS survey configuration and pay attention to the PPP related dialogs and settings listed below:


In Automomous/SBAS survey configuration:


In Network RTK survey configuration:


In RTK survey configuration:


Starting and managing survey with PPP enabled

Connect MAGNET Field to the rover receiver using a survey configuration with enabled PPP.

Note: If "Connected receiver does not support Starpoint™" warning is displayed after MAGNET Field established connection to the GNSS receiver, ensure:
• the actual connected GNSS receiver matches to the model configured in MAGNET Field;
• the Option Authorization File (OAF) is valid.


To control the current PPP status:
