RTK antennas for precise navigation

SmiLab-RTK and Nav-Agro RTK Navigation Receivers — High-Precision Solutions for Precision Agriculture, Construction, or Surveying.

The SmiLab-RTK and Nav-Agro RTK receivers represent the highest level of GPS navigation technology, providing accuracy down to 2 cm. This is tens of times better than conventional navigation systems that operate only on free satellite signals without RTK corrections. With such receivers, you can determine the coordinates not only of a field but also of individual rows or even plants with an accuracy of up to 1 cm.

Advantages of SmiLab-RTK and Nav-Agro RTK Receivers:

• High accuracy up to 2 cm
• Ability to operate autonomously without an RTK signal
• Easy connection and startup

How to Get Started with SmiLab-RTK and Nav-Agro RTK:

1. Install the antenna on your vehicle and connect the power.
2. Launch the SmiLab Agro software on your tablet. The program will automatically connect to the antenna via Bluetooth and start receiving navigation data.
3. For precision agriculture in RTK mode, you need to enter the base station data (NTRIP-Caster) and connect to the server via the internet. If done correctly, within 10-30 seconds the receiver will start operating with an accuracy of up to 1 cm.

Thanks to the SmiLab-RTK and Nav-Agro RTK receivers, you get the highest quality GPS navigation and confidence in the accuracy of data for your farm.

The "RTK navigation" category encompasses high-precision navigation solutions that use Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) technology to achieve exceptional accuracy during agricultural operations. RTK systems provide positioning accuracy down to a few centimeters, making them ideal for use in modern precision agriculture. Thanks to these technologies, farmers can significantly optimize tillage, sowing, fertilization, and harvesting processes, minimizing losses and reducing costs.

One of the key features of RTK navigation is the use of correction signals transmitted from stationary base stations to receivers on machinery in real-time. This minimizes GPS errors and guarantees high accuracy even in challenging conditions, such as working on large areas, in terrain with complex topography, or in poor visibility conditions.

Using RTK systems allows farmers to avoid duplicate work in the fields, which significantly reduces fuel and labor costs. Moreover, thanks to the system's accuracy, the amount of inefficiently used resources, such as fertilizers, herbicides, or other crop protection products, is reduced. This contributes to increased yields and lower overall production costs.

RTK navigation also opens up possibilities for automated vehicle control, including autopilot systems that provide automatic steering for tractors and combines without human intervention. This helps reduce operator fatigue, increase the accuracy of field operations, and decrease risks associated with human error.

Integrating RTK solutions with other agri-navigation systems allows for the creation of a comprehensive infrastructure for efficient agricultural management. Farmers can control all processes from a single device, using RTK navigation in conjunction with software for data monitoring and analysis, which helps in making informed decisions regarding field treatment and improving farm efficiency.

Furthermore, the continuous development of RTK navigation technologies makes it accessible even for small farms, allowing every farmer to benefit from precision agriculture and increase their market competitiveness.
