Description

The SparkFun RTK Express Plus is an easy to use GNSS receiver for centimeter-level positioning. Perfect for surveying, autonomous vehicles, logging, and all types of post processing, this preprogrammed device can also be used for autonomous driving, navigation, asset tracking and any other application where there is a clear view of the sky. The RTK Express Plus adds an internal IMU to combine real-time GNSS tracking with advanced sensor fusion. The result is accurate positioning even when GNSS is lost in tunnels, parking garages, etc. Out of the box an RTK Express Plus can be used with a correction source to create an RTK system capable of 14mm horizontal positional accuracy. The built-in Bluetooth® connection via an ESP32 WROOM enables the user to use the RTK Express Plus with their choice of GIS application on a phone or tablet. The built in battery allows for over five hours of field use and is compatible with common USB battery banks.

The RTK Express Plus works with common GIS software for Android and iOS including SW Maps Android / iOS, Field Genius, SurvPC, Survey Master, Vespucci, QGIS, QField, and any GIS software that supports NMEA over Bluetooth.

We took all the lessons from the RTK Surveyor and built the RTK Express Plus. The RTK Express Plus is built upon the ZED-F9R u-blox receiver which uses the same F9 engine as all our RTK products but couples it with a built-in IMU. The embedded display allows for immediate feedback of horizontal positional accuracy, satellites in view, logging status, sensor fusion status, battery level, Bluetooth® MAC, etc. The rocker switches found on the original have been replaced by keypad buttons. We increased the battery to 1300mAh for a longer run time. The internal switches have been replaced by a digital mux allowing for some really exciting applications including event triangulation. More ESD protection was added to protect the RF path, and we even threw in an accelerometer for digital leveling in the field. Please note u-blox's sensor fusion algorithms are designed specifically for vehicles and will not aid in the accuracy of normal surveying.

This device can be used in two modes:

  • GNSS Positioning with IMU Aid (~30cm accuracy)
  • GNSS Positioning with RTK and IMU Aid (1.4cm accuracy)

In Position mode the device receives L1/L2 signals from a user-provided antenna and the high-grade GNSS receiver provides lat/long and altitude with accuracies around 300mm. If enabled in automotive applications, the internal IMU augments the position information when GNSS reception is degraded.

In Positioning with RTK mode the device receives L1/L2 signals from the antenna and correction data from a base station. The correction data can be obtained from a cellular link to online correction sources or over a radio link to a RTK Surveyor/Express setup as a base station. If enabled in automotive applications, the internal IMU augments the position information when GNSS reception is degraded.

No Base Mode. The RTK Express Plus adds an internal IMU (ZED-F9R) to combine real-time GNSS tracking with advanced sensor fusion. The result is accurate automotive positioning even when GNSS is lost in tunnels, parking garages, etc. The downside is the RTK Express Plus does not support a base station or generating RTCM corrections. If you are implementing your own RTK base station, consider using products based on the ZED-F9P (RTK Surveyor, RTK Express, or RTK Facet). The IMU algorithms only apply to automotive applications and will not increase or decrease regular 'clear view of the sky' positioning performance.

Two cables are provided with the RTK Express Plus allowing a user to plug in our easy to use Serial Telemetry Radios or their own radio link. If a local correction source is within 10km, a user can also use their phone to provide correction data over the Bluetooth® link (no external radio needed!).

Note: The SparkFun RTK Express Plus is just the enclosed device and does NOT include an antenna, serial telemetry radio, or associated mounting pieces. These items will need to be purchased separately from the Hookup Accessories below.
