The Emlid Reach M2 Multiband RTK GNSS Module for UAV mapping provides positioning with centimeter accuracy in RTK and PPK with less GCPs.
Features:
- GNSS: GPS/QZSS, GLONASS L1, L2; BeiDou B1, B2; Galileo E1, E5
- Long range radio: External LoRa radio module: 868/915 MHz, range up to 8 km. (sold separately)
- Multiband
- Baseline up to 100km in PPK
- Comes with the Emlid Flow app for iOS and Android
PPK Mapping with Centimeter Accuracy | Use Fewer GCPs
-
Why camera synchronization is so important: Usually autopilot triggers the camera and records the coordinate it has at that moment. When the drone is flying at 20 m/s and GPS works at 5 Hz, that means your autopilot will have position readings only each 4 m, which is not suitable for precise georeferencing. In addition, there is always a delay between the trigger and the actual moment the photo is taken.
-
Emlid Reach eliminates the delay: Reach solves the problem of positioning by connecting directly to the camera hot shoe port, which is synced with the shutter. The time and coordinates of each photo are logged with a resolution of less than a microsecond. This method allows GCPs to be used only to check your accuracy.
NTRIP or Another Reach as a Base Station
To calculate centimeter-precise coordinates in PPK and RTK, Reach needs corrections from a base station; it can be another Emlid Reach receiver or an NTRIP service. VRS is also supported.
-
Compatibility: Reach M2 works seamlessly with other Emlid Reach receivers over any link and is compatible with any other receiver that supports RTCM3 and NTRIP.
Emlid Flow App Included
Emlid Flow is the most user-friendly software for data collection that is available both for Android and iOS. With Emlid Flow, you can control all the features of Reach receivers, such as setting up a base station, logging RINEX data, configuring NMEA output, and monitoring data.
-
Camera Control: Reach is able to trigger cameras as well as register events. The event mark feature is a must for aerial mapping as it allows the precise time when the shutter was activated to be registered.
-
Simple Log Management: Logs are automatically recorded directly to RINEX in the internal memory. View a list of the logs and download them using the Emlid Flow app.
-
Monitoring Data: Emlid Flow shows current satellite levels, your location on a map, and much more.
