GNSS post-processing

Pg-GPS

Static GPS baselines, with the CORS stations chosen for you.

Pg-GPS processes static GPS baselines from RINEX 2 and 3 against CORS reference stations it ranks and downloads for you, with quality-control views, reports that record exactly what was applied, and a verified hand-off to Surveyor.

Standouts

Why Pg-GPS.

Traceable

Reports that say exactly what was applied

Every baseline report records the input and correction files by checksum and which processing path ran, and it marks a correction as applied only when the solver actually used it.

Ranked

CORS stations chosen for you

Pg-GPS ranks reference stations by distance, time coverage, sample rate, reference frame and provider health, downloads the NOAA data for your session, and runs many candidates in one pass.

Verified

A hand-off Surveyor can check

Every file in the hand-off package carries a SHA-256 checksum, and Surveyor checks the package before it imports the points and linework.

Quality control you can act on

Skyplot, signal-to-noise, visibility and data gaps, cycle slips you can exclude, acceptance presets, and DOP and multipath plots.

GPU-accelerated, with a CPU fallback

Baselines can run on the GPU with a CPU fallback, and the report records which path processed each one.

Support diagnostics built in

A diagnostics bundle gathers the logs and settings support needs, so a question about a baseline can be answered quickly.

Overview

From the receiver file to a baseline you can defend.

Load your RINEX observations, let Pg-GPS find and download the right CORS data, check the quality, process the baselines and keep a report that shows exactly what went into each solution.

Static baselines

Float and fixed static baseline solutions from RINEX 2 and 3 observation files.

CORS without the hunt

A ranked station queue, an automatic 4-hour UTC block, and NOAA downloads, or attach the files you already have.

Hand-off to the office

Reports, STAR*NET .DAT files and a checksum-verified package Surveyor imports directly.

Features

What Pg-GPS does.

Process

Static baselines from RINEX

Read RINEX 2 and 3 observation files and solve static baselines from float to fixed solutions, on the GPU with a CPU fallback.

  • RINEX 2 and 3 observations
  • Float and fixed static solutions
  • GPU processing with CPU fallback
Reference data

CORS stations ranked and fetched

Candidate CORS stations are ranked by distance, time coverage, sample rate, reference frame and provider health. Pg-GPS picks the 4-hour UTC block, downloads NOAA data, or uses files you attach, and processes many candidates in one batch.

  • Ranked station queue
  • Automatic NOAA CORS download
  • Attach cached reference files
Quality control

See the data before you trust it

Skyplot, signal-to-noise, visibility and data-gap views, cycle slips you can exclude, acceptance presets, and DOP and multipath plots.

  • Skyplot, SNR and visibility
  • Cycle slips you can exclude
  • DOP and multipath plots
Reports and exports

A record of every solution

Reports in HTML or text carry the checksums of the inputs and corrections and the processing path. Export RINEX, STAR*NET .DAT, CSV, JSON, KML and GPX.

  • HTML and text reports with checksums
  • STAR*NET .DAT export
  • CSV, JSON, KML and GPX
Hand-off

Straight into Surveyor

A hand-off package with a SHA-256 checksum on every file, which Surveyor checks before importing the points and DXF linework.

  • Checksum on every file
  • Checked by Surveyor before import

Questions

About Pg-GPS.

Which satellite systems does Pg-GPS use?

Pg-GPS positions with GPS satellites. Observations from other constellations in your RINEX files are read but not yet used in the solution.

Which receiver files can I load?

RINEX 2 and 3 observation files. Convert receiver-native files, such as Trimble .T02, to RINEX first.

Where does the CORS data come from?

Pg-GPS downloads CORS observations from NOAA's National Geodetic Survey for your session, or you can attach reference files you already have.

Does Pg-GPS do real-time RTK?

No. Pg-GPS is for post-processing static observations.
