K1Pro ChapterⅥ Measuring Operation Reading this chapter, you can grasp in detail how to use the K1Pro measurement to do system static, RTK operations. GPS measurement operation scheme refers to the operating scheme used to determine the relative position between the stations with the help of GPS technology. Point coordinate precision obtained is not the same; its operating methods and observation time are also different, thus having different range of applications.
K1Pro The establishment of precision engineering control network, such as bridge measurement, tunnel measurements, etc; The establishment of a variety of encryption control network, such as city measurements, Drawing Point measurement, road surveying, demarcation measurements.
K1Pro 5)Power on, confirm the static mode, the mainframe begins to search satellites and satellite lights begin to flash. Recording condition reached, the status light flashes in accordance with the set sampling interval, flashing once indicates the acquisition of an epoch. 6)After the test, the mainframe shut down, and then begins data transmission and data processing (data transmission sees Chapter IV, data processing, please read another manual GPS data processing software operation manual). §6.1.
K1Pro and consistency. General speaking, the amount of baselines has such limit as follows: The advantage of circle net is the small workload, good self-checking and consistency. But the main disadvantage is that the accuracy of indirect-observed border is lower than that of direct-observed border, and the baseline accuracy of neighbor points distributes unevenly. In field surveying, we usually use annexed traverse as special example according to practical situation and the net usage.
K1Pro Measuring plate h We use a formula to calculate antenna height. “h” is the inclined height that measure from point on the ground to the measuring plate edge. R0 is the distance from middle of antenna to the edge of measuring plate. h 0 is the distance from antenna phase center to the bottom of receiver (measuring plate). H is the calculation result. We usually measure antenna height twice and adopt the average.
K1Pro §6.2 RTK measurement RTK is the abbreviation of Real-Time Kinematic measurements. RTK technology is the real-time dynamic differential carrier phase positioning technology, combining global satellite navigation and positioning technology with data communication technology which includes base station and rover station.

K1Pro activated in a few seconds. K1Pro IMU supports tilt survey in as much as 60 degrees angle. Without leveling, K1Pro IMU' positioning efficiency has been increased by over 30%. And at the same time, the algorithm of IMU+GNSS will guarantee a stable and accurate positioning result. There are several disadvantages in last generation of tilt survey (with tilt sensor compensation). It takes too much time to do E-bubble calibration and magnetic calibration before work.

K1Pro §6.2.6 Star-link & Star-Fill Star-Link Built on Star-link technology, KOLIDA K1Pro provides high-accuracy GNSS positioning services via satellite or cellular delivery worldwide. It's ideal for jobs requiring the highest accuracy. Only K1pro provides accuracy of less than 2 centimeters, helping you get your job done fast with pinpoint accuracy. After subscribing to it, surveyors can work almost anywhere in the world without a base station or VRS network.
K1Pro value and protocol that are selected to match on rovers later on. Then choose “Network” for Datalink option and choose “internal radio” for Router option in “General Config” page, click on “Enter” button to confirm the settings. At this moment, configure the parameters for rover to access to the CORS server for corrections.
