Description

Complete RTK GNSS rover and super base solution

The a-Geo Matrix Ultra Super Rover & Base Set is built for field teams that need a complete RTK setup instead of a single receiver. It combines a feature-rich Matrix Ultra rover with a Matrix Ultra-B Super Base, giving surveyors and construction professionals the flexibility to work with a local base station, UHF corrections and modern rover measurement tools.

This set is well suited for topographic surveys, construction layout, road projects, infrastructure work, earthworks, GIS data collection, drone ground control and large sites where a dependable local correction source is preferred. It is especially useful when mobile internet coverage is limited, when network RTK is not available, or when a team wants more control over its own base and rover workflow.

Matrix Ultra rover for faster point collection

The Matrix Ultra rover is designed for more than standard pole-based GNSS measurement. It includes visual measurement, AR stakeout support, laser measurement and IMU tilt compensation. In practical fieldwork, this helps crews measure points that are difficult to occupy directly, such as corners, walls, fences, trenches, stockpiles, slopes, traffic areas or obstructed locations.

The laser measurement function allows reflectorless measurement for points that are hard or unsafe to reach with the pole. For construction and survey teams, this can reduce walking, speed up data capture and make it easier to collect detail in complex environments. The visual and AR functions also help users understand where they are measuring or staking out, which is useful when working from digital designs or checking points on busy job sites.

Super Base with 5W UHF for long-range correction links

The included Matrix Ultra-B Super Base is focused on stable long-range RTK correction transmission. Its integrated 5W UHF radio is designed for typical working distances of up to 20 km under general conditions. This can remove the need for a separate external radio, external battery, extra antenna and additional cabling on many projects.

The UHF system operates in the 410–470 MHz range and supports common radio protocols including Trimtalk450S, AlphaTalk15, South, Satel and PCC-EOT. For survey companies and contractors, this helps when integrating the set into existing GNSS workflows or when working with compatible receivers already in the fleet.

Reliable multi-constellation GNSS performance

Both receivers are based on a 1408-channel GNSS engine and support modern satellite signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, IRNSS, SBAS and L-Band. In real field conditions, this broad signal support helps maintain satellite availability across different regions and job site environments.

The system supports RTK positioning for centimetre-level survey work, with specified RTK accuracy of 8 mm + 1 ppm horizontally and 15 mm + 1 ppm vertically for baseline RTK surveying. For static GNSS work, the receiver is specified at 2.5 mm + 0.5 ppm horizontally and 5 mm + 0.5 ppm vertically. This makes the set suitable for professional surveying, engineering control, site layout and mapping tasks where accuracy and repeatability are important.

120° IMU tilt for practical field measurement

The integrated IMU supports tilt compensation up to 120° with a 400 Hz update rate. For field users, this means the pole does not always need to be perfectly level when measuring or staking points. It is useful near buildings, under light obstructions, beside machinery, along kerbs, against fences or in trenches where holding a pole vertically can be slow or difficult.

The IMU is designed to improve productivity while keeping the workflow simple for construction crews, surveyors and GIS users who want accurate results without constantly re-levelling the pole.

Built for construction sites and survey conditions

The Matrix Ultra receivers are built with a magnesium alloy body and IP67 protection against dust and water. They are specified to withstand a 2 m pole drop onto concrete and operate in temperatures from -40°C to +75°C. This makes the set suitable for demanding outdoor work, daily transport between sites and harsh survey environments.

Connectivity options include 4G mobile network support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, USB-C, SIM card slot and LEMO interface. This gives crews multiple ways to configure, connect, transfer data and work with RTK correction methods depending on the project.

Designed for real field workflows

The a-Geo Matrix Ultra Super Rover & Base Set is a strong choice for teams that want one package for both rover measurement and base station correction. The rover helps users collect and stake points more efficiently with camera, laser and tilt tools. The Super Base supports larger working areas with its 5W UHF radio and long-range correction transmission.

For surveyors, it can support control work, topo surveys, stakeout and hard-to-reach measurements. For construction teams, it can be used for layout, checks, earthworks and site control. For drone pilots and GIS teams, it can support accurate ground control and field data collection where reliable GNSS positioning is needed.
