GNSS Receiver for Surveying and GIS

A GNSS receiver for surveying needs centimetre RTK, a dependable base station and raw data for static and PPK work. Eview delivers all three: the HB62 rugged base, the HBEV11 smart antenna as base or rover, HB6 and HB56 rovers and the EV288 full-band antenna, powered by Septentrio modules with AIM+ anti-jamming.

What surveyors need

What a survey and GIS GNSS receiver must deliver

Centimetre RTK
RTK accuracy of 0.6 cm + 0.5 ppm horizontal and 1 cm + 1 ppm vertical, with about 7 s initialisation, so detail points and stakeout are captured quickly. See RTK positioning.
Your own base station
A fixed base sends RTCM v3 corrections to rovers by radio or NTRIP. The HB62 adds Ethernet, 64 GB logging and an IP67 housing for permanent or job-site bases. See base receivers.
Raw data for static and PPK
Static control surveys and PPK need raw observations. Eview receivers log Septentrio SBF on board, which converts to RINEX for processing in your usual post-processing software. See RTK vs PPK.
More satellites in difficult sites
Multi-constellation, multi-frequency tracking keeps more satellites in view under trees and beside buildings, while APME+ reduces multipath errors close to walls and vehicles. See multi-constellation receivers.
Protection from interference
Construction sites, roads and telecom masts generate RF interference. Septentrio AIM+ suppresses jamming and Galileo OSNMA authenticates signals against spoofing on supported receivers. See anti-jamming receivers.
Simple field hardware
The HBEV11 combines receiver and full-band antenna on one M12 cable, and the EV288 antenna is IP67 and vibration and salt-spray tested, so setups are quick and robust. See smart antennas.

Use cases

Survey and GIS applications

Topographic and cadastral surveys
RTK rover positions for detail and boundary points, with corrections from your own base station or a CORS network.
GIS data collection
Centimetre positions for utility, asset and environmental mapping, with lightweight receivers that output standard NMEA to field software.
Construction stakeout
Setting out and as-built checks on earthworks, roads and structures, with corrections from a job-site base. See construction and mining.
Drone mapping control
A local HB62 base supplies RTK corrections to drones and logs base data for PPK. See drone GNSS.
Mobile mapping
Vehicle-mounted receivers log raw data at up to 100 Hz alongside LiDAR and cameras for trajectory processing. See 100 Hz GNSS.
Monitoring control networks
Fixed reference and monitoring points that track movement on slopes, dams and bridges over time. See deformation monitoring.
Integration

Easy to integrate into your survey workflow

Corrections
RTCM v3 input from NTRIP casters, CORS networks or your own HB62 base, which serves corrections over Ethernet. See NTRIP, RTCM and RINEX.
Outputs and integrity
NMEA for field controllers and GIS apps, Septentrio SBF for full raw data. RAIM+ flags faulty measurements. See RAIM+ integrity monitoring.
Logging and RINEX
Raw data on microSD, SD card or the HB62’s 64 GB memory, converted to RINEX for static and PPK processing. Firmware and manuals on firmware downloads.
FAQ

Survey GNSS: frequently asked questions

Which Eview GNSS receiver for surveying should I choose?

For a fixed or job-site base, the HB62 rugged base receiver with NTRIP, Ethernet and 64 GB logging. For a simple base or rover on one cable, the HBEV11 smart antenna. For lightweight or vehicle rovers, the HB6 or HB56 with an EV288 full-band antenna. Tell us your workflow and we will recommend a set-up.

What RTK accuracy do Eview receivers achieve?

RTK accuracy is 0.6 cm + 0.5 ppm horizontal and 1 cm + 1 ppm vertical, with initialisation in about 7 seconds. Real-world results depend on baseline length, sky view, multipath and correction quality, so keep baselines short and antennas clear of obstructions.

Do Eview receivers support static surveys and RINEX?

Yes. The receivers log raw observations in Septentrio SBF format, which converts to RINEX for processing in standard post-processing software. Static accuracy depends on session length, baseline length, antenna and processing software, so ask us for guidance on your project.

Can I run my own base station?

Yes. The HB62 is built as a base: it accepts power from 9 to 36 V, connects over Ethernet, serves RTCM v3 corrections via NTRIP and logs up to 64 GB of raw data. The HBEV11 smart antenna can also be configured as a base or as a rover.

Which antenna should I use for surveying?

The EV288 is a full-band antenna covering L5, E6 and L-band with a standard 5/8-inch survey mount and an IP67 housing. For more on antenna choice and multipath, see how choke ring antennas reduce multipath.
