What are some desirable specifications for creating a RTN that is an open-architecture system? I want to be able to set up a large network, but not be pinned down to one vendor forever if the cost to maintain the network gets too costly after a few years of operation. I want to keep the competition for manufactures available in case a major upgrade is needed.?ÿ
Thanks.
I am not an expert at RTN, but have been considering putting a NTRIP caster (such as SNIP) into operation for my own use.?ÿ ?ÿThere are quite a few programs available, some are free even for commercial use that are scaleble up to a RTN.?ÿ ?ÿIt appears all you need is open sky, a good GNSS receiver, a PC and internet.
?ÿThank you for the reply. If I understand you correctly I do not need a vendor??s GUI to operate the network. As long as I get the corrections from the base stations reporting into our server and I should be able to send the corrections to the users via NTRIP software.?ÿ
?ÿI know there??s more to the solution than this, but is that a general Birdseye view of what needs to be done??ÿ
I repeat, I have not actually done this, but this is my goal:
