• Reference frame – adopt latest realization of NAD 83 (NAD 83 2011 epoch 2010.00)
• CORS + RTN – include a few CORS in the RTN
• Adjustments– Constrain CORS that are included
• Base station monitoring– Process data periodically– Monitor coordinates over time
• Base station information– Coordinates, velocities, epoch
RTN Basics
![Page 4: RTN Methodologies & Best Practices Neil D. Weston National Geodetic Survey, NOS, NOAA Silver Spring, MD March 20, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649d155503460f949ea47a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
RTN Basics and Formats• Receiver collection rate – minimum 1Hz• Data formats– Propriety– Open standard– Compatibility
• RTCM SC-104– Only true ‘open’ protocol– RTCM-2.1 Added RTK messages for dm levels at short distances– RTCM-2.2 Expanded for differential operations with GLONASS
![Page 5: RTN Methodologies & Best Practices Neil D. Weston National Geodetic Survey, NOS, NOAA Silver Spring, MD March 20, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649d155503460f949ea47a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
RTCM Formats– RTCM-2.2, 2.3 RTK operations providing cm- level
performance at short distances– RTCM-3.x More efficient; support RTK operations
(GPS+GLONASS); network correction message
• Common message types 2.x– Type 18, 20 – RTK uncorrected carrier phase data and carrier
phase corrections– Type 19, 21 – RTK uncorrected pseudo-range measurements
and appropriate range corrections
• Common message types 3.x– 1004 – full observables– 1005 – reference station coordinates– 1007 – antenna description

Network RTK Processing Techniques & Applications
• Virtual Reference Station – VRS• Area-Parameter Correction – FKP• Master-Auxiliary Concept – MAC
• Grading, utilities, pipelines, roads• Landscaping, cadastral surveys, mapping
![Page 9: RTN Methodologies & Best Practices Neil D. Weston National Geodetic Survey, NOS, NOAA Silver Spring, MD March 20, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649d155503460f949ea47a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Area Correction Parameters - FKP• Network described using coefficients for a surface• Parallel surface with baselines less than 100 km• Reference station at the center of the “surface”• Software in rover receiver does the interpolation
of corrections• Error information is provided for quality control
and analysis• Single and bi-directional communications
![Page 10: RTN Methodologies & Best Practices Neil D. Weston National Geodetic Survey, NOS, NOAA Silver Spring, MD March 20, 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649d155503460f949ea47a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• VRS techniques is currently the most popular• Requires bi-directional communications• VRS observations constructed• Rover approx. position to NRTK center• Rover solution based on range between VRS
and rover• VRS kept to preserve ambiguities
Virtual Reference Station - VRS

• Rover position (NMEA) to processing center• Processing center chooses a master station –
usually closest ref. station• Auxiliary stations are chosen from a 70 km
catch circle• Rover receives MAC corrections via RTCM• Rover decides on method of interpolation of
corrections and how the position is determined – double difference, for example
Master Auxiliary Concept - MAC
