SAPOS® reference stations
Raw data from reference stations in RTCM format
You can purchase the raw data from the SAPOS® reference stations in RTCM 3.2 MSM5 format via the ZSS in order to generate your own correction data services. For further information, please contact us by email sapos-zentrale-stelle@lgln.niedersachsen.de.
Which applications are supported?
The areas of application for SAPOS® services are as fascinating as they are wide ranging.
The areas of application for SAPOS® HEPS range from traditional cadastral surveying, engineering and construction surveying, GIS data acquisition, hydrographic applications and shipping to the automated control of agricultural and construction machinery.
SAPOS® GPPS is used where maximum accuracy is required, whether in the post-processing evaluation of aerial surveys or scan data, mobile mapping applications, or in the context of geodynamic investigations and monitoring tasks.
Regardless of the application, the proven SAPOS® services provide you with GNSS correction data of the highest quality and help you to carry out your measurement processes and tasks efficiently and precisely.
