Correction Data Service

Overview

Sodex systems rely on the GNSS system for positioning. To achieve RTK-level accuracy in measurements and data collection, a correction data service is required. This service must be set up by the user and is not provided by Sodex.

Setting Up the Correction Data Service

Assigning a Correction Service

• Each system in a project requires an individual correction service.
• Default settings are preloaded but can be adjusted during project creation.

Configuration Parameters

• The correction service operates via the internet.
• Required inputs:
  • NTRIP Server
  • NTRIP Port
  • Mountpoint
  • Username and Password

Ensuring Accuracy and Reliability

• The correction data must be precise and reliable to enable proper scanning.
• If another system or machine is using the same correction service, data conflicts may prevent scanning.
• Verify the correctness of the entered details to avoid errors.

Common Issues and Solutions

• Data is not scanning: Check for duplicate usage of the correction service.
• Incorrect settings: Confirm that the NTRIP details are entered correctly.
• Uncertainty about data sources: Contact your local distributor or Sodex support for guidance.
• Using correction services from other devices: Ensure compatibility, as some NTRIP mountpoints may differ.

Modifying the Correction Service

• The correction service can be adjusted in the Project Settings > Systems section. If incorrectly configured, it must be corrected before scanning can proceed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why do I need a correction data service?

• It ensures RTK-level accuracy for GNSS-based measurements, allowing for precise data collection.

Q: Can I use the same correction service for multiple systems?

• It is possible but may cause conflicts. Ensure that multiple systems do not interfere with each other.

Q: What happens if I enter incorrect NTRIP details?

• The system will not function correctly, and scanning may fail.

Q: Where can I get correction data credentials?

• Contact your local distributor or Sodex support for assistance.

Q: Can I change the correction service after project creation?

• Yes, the correction service settings can be modified in Project Settings > Systems.

Proper configuration of the correction data service is key to maintaining precise and reliable positioning across all project data.
