Topcon Releases MAGNET Relay for GIS

Topcon Positioning Group announces the addition of MAGNET Relay for GIS to its suite of cloud-based solutions software. As a component of MAGNET Field GIS, MAGNET Relay GIS is a mobile base station RTK (Real Time Kinematic) broadcasting service. The system is designed to allow subscribers to connect a GNSS base receiver to the relay via a cellular connection for high-accuracy RTK corrections.

“The RTK base station can be used by up to ten rovers, which makes MAGNET Relay a great solution for large scale and highly precise GIS projects,” said Stefan Naumann, business manager, software and solutions for Topcon Europe Positioning.

“The relay for GIS allows for data to be collected in the field without the need for post-processing, and then quickly transferred to the office using the company’s secure, cloud-based MAGNET Enterprise account,” said Naumann. “Additionally, the service brings real-time network-based corrections to project sites that do not have existing coverage.”
