Near Real-Time Differential GNSS Positioning (NRT DGNSS Positioning)

Near Real-Time Differential GNSS Positioning (NRT DGNSS Positioning)

Service Content

Using near real-time differential GNSS positioning (NRT DGNSS Positioning) — base-station corrections remove errors common to both stations, and the monitoring station resolves its position with carrier-phase real-time kinematic (RTK) processing — we provide centimeter-level 3D displacement monitoring services.

This service resolves position from carrier-phase observations. It differs from conventional differential positioning based on pseudorange (code) corrections alone, which reaches only sub-meter to meter-level accuracy — adequate for navigation and mapping, but not for deformation monitoring of structures.

Main Applications

  • Bridge and building displacement monitoring
  • Slope stability monitoring
  • Dam and levee deformation monitoring
  • Earthquake and land subsidence monitoring

Technical Advantages

  • Centimeter-level positioning accuracy
  • Near real-time continuous monitoring
  • 3D displacement measurement
  • Long-term stability and reliability

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the positioning accuracy of the GNSS monitoring system?

Our GNSS system enables 3D displacement tracking with positioning accuracy of 1-2 cm horizontally and 2-3 cm vertically. It receives all-constellation dual-frequency signals and is suitable for long-term continuous displacement monitoring of structures such as bridges, slopes, and dams.

Can GNSS monitoring operate around the clock?

Yes. The GNSS system is designed for 24/7 uninterrupted operation, unaffected by weather and lighting conditions. The system features automated data transmission and anomaly alerts, and can be paired with the GeoGuard platform for real-time monitoring.

What types of monitoring projects is GNSS suitable for?

GNSS is particularly suitable for displacement monitoring projects requiring centimeter-level accuracy, including bridge and building displacement, slope stability, dam and levee deformation, and long-term observation of earthquakes and land subsidence.
