This is a very practical tutorial series that helps people gain fundamental knowledge of high-precision positioning (RTK) technology at a relatively low cost. It’s not only suitable for engineers but also for anyone interested in high-precision positioning or tech enthusiasts.
2:24.😀 you definitely saved me a lot of time - and managed to draw the big picture, giving those essential pointers that help(ed) me understanding a bit how everything is connected, plus tons of very useful practical tips. Thank you.
Thanks for giving such useful insights. Have you ever worked with hot starts? How long does it take (from deep sleep to fix)? I read it takes 60μA to allow hot start. Anyway, looking forward for the next videos.
@@oceanexplorationlab The reason I asked that this antenna (in your video) is good for base station but for rover (say a bike or any small vehicle ) it is not suitable.
Hi, nice work!! Like to ask you. It's possible to use 982 as base station with only 1 antenna. And more importante do you have a schematics on how to connect this module with esp32 microcontroller or something like that!? Thanks and best regards!!❤
You absolutely can, and I plan to make a video on this hopefully soon. Briefly, you can use the UDP/TCP socket function or the NTRIP Caster function to build a local setup. Alternatively, there are some Bluetooth options as well, which I hope to investigate and make a video on. Subscribe so you don’t miss when I upload them! :-)
??? Last week, I just paid $15,500 for a GPS + Monito data collector. For another, is this something I could build? I've got a little electronics and programming experience.
Absolutely, by the end of the series, I hope to have provided step-by-step instructions on how to build and set up the base/rover RTK solution. The module I am using is an L1/L2/L5 triple-band system. I'm not sure what your $15k setup adds to this and what your requirements are. The video on how to set up the base should be out next week. Let me know if you decide to follow along. Cheers!

Thanks so much! That was exactly the intent of the series. I'm really happy to hear that it's working.
Incredibly useful series! My UM980 just came in today, looking forward to trying it out!
Thanks, have fun

Great to hear!
Great intro and definitely going to be looking forward to more videos etc.
Maybe work on your mic setup a bit?
Working on it!
Where to find forum/group to discuss UM982 technical problem ?

I've been looking for a long time.
Glad you found what you were looking for
Thank you for the nice series. Is it possible to buy a cheaper antenna for WTRTK-980/82? If yes, which one do you recommend?
I have not tried but it should be possible with some loss of accuracy

@@IamGPSGuy True, they are too big for mobile applications. I have smaller antennas but haven't tried them yet. This is on my to-do list
Nice intro!
Thanks!

Yes and yes. Please see my other videos in the playlist. They will answer both of your questions.
@oceanexplorationlab hi thanks for answer. Can you suggest a good antenna for base and for hover.?
Gutes Video, danke Dir.
Gern geschehen
Can you have UM980 as base station and UM980 at the rover, without all those cloud services? Let say I'm interested in local precision not global.

Very good introduction. Will be watching from Texas.
Awesome! Thank you!
