Reliable GNSS Corrections Without the Need for a Base Station
When you’re working in remote locations, poor mobile coverage or long distances between projects can make traditional RTK correction services difficult to use.
Hemisphere Atlas® is a satellite-delivered GNSS correction service that provides reliable positioning across Australia and around the world without requiring a local base station, radio link or internet connection.
Whether you’re surveying remote infrastructure, operating machine control systems, managing mining projects or collecting GIS data, Atlas helps keep your team productive wherever work takes you.
Available through Red Edge Resources with local Australian support, setup assistance and subscription management.
What is Hemisphere Atlas?
Hemisphere Atlas is a global correction service that delivers GNSS corrections directly to compatible Hemisphere receivers via L-Band satellite.
Unlike traditional RTK networks that rely on mobile coverage or radio communications, Atlas uses a dedicated satellite correction network, allowing users to maintain accurate positioning in remote and challenging environments.
The result is a simple, reliable correction solution that works across vast areas without the infrastructure requirements of traditional RTK systems.
