Veripos Established Chinese GNSS Service
Veripos has extended the Far East section of its worldwide GNSS-based precise positioning service for offshore oil and gas applications with the establishment of a new infrastructure in China.
The land-based facilities situated in Tanggu at the innermost gulf of the Yellow Sea provide rapid update rates and low data latency with correction data relayed by both high and low power satellites. High-precision observation data is used to produce Veripos’ proprietary Standard and Standard Plus single and dual-frequency DGPS services respectively. These permit computation of multi-station positioning solutions for added precision and reliability and are compatible with all types of GPS receivers using the RTCM SC104 V2.3 correction format. Available accuracies are typically 1m over ranges up to 2,000km. This precision can be further refined to decimetric level using Veripos’ latest Ultra Precise Point Positioning (PPP) facility for correction or modelling of GPS system errors.
This introduction follows recent extensions to Veripos’ globalised multi-station GNSS networks for offshore users in Australia, New Zealand, Costa Rica and Venezuela.
