Abstract

HPPS service of the CROPOS system is today a fast, reliable, precise and commonly used tool for coordinates determination in Croatia. The advantages of a networked RTK method are well known, but in some situations, a single-base RTK method could be a reliable method for coordinates determination, even without a base station having known coordinates. Single-base RTK method with Autonomous base start can be set up on any (unknown) station with a clear sky and GNSS satellites visibility enabled. Differential corrections are usually broadcast to the rover GNSS receiver via a communication link, enabling the coordinates determination with cm-level precision in real time. Simultaneously, the base GNSS receiver collects static observations for base station determination in post-processing and subsequent rover coordinates shift. In this paper, the above mentioned method was tested on the ground, together with TILT option integrated into newest Topcon GNSS receiver.
