Suitability of Installing a GNSS Base Station on a Moving Vessel

[PaulZC]

Hi @positioning ,

It depends whether you need absolute or relative positioning accuracy. We had a user who wanted to have a Base in a moving vehicle, sending corrections to a moving Base on a UAV, sending corrections to a Rover also on the UAV. They needed the position, heading and orientation of the UAV relative to the moving vehicle. More details attached below.

I hope this helps,
Paul

GPS-RTK2 ZED-F9P Question about the use of a moving base

Hello everyone , I’d like to make a heading sensor for a flying drone with the GPS-RTK2 ZED-F9P, but I’d also like to have his positioning in space so here are my questions : -Do I need two boards (a moving base and a rover) on the drone to have the heading and two more boards (a base on the ground and a second rover on the drone) to have the positioning ? -Or can I use the moving base on the drone to act simultaneously as a rover for the base on the ground ? In this case I will only need 3 boards. (One rover on the drone, one moving base on the drone and one base on the ground) -Or if a moving base can’t be used simultaneously as a rover, can I have one base on the ground and two rover on my drone and then process the heading of my drone by using the data position of the two rover ? Thank you for your time !
