Compact RTK GNSS Receiver for Everyday Field Surveying
The SingularXYZ X1 Pro combines survey-grade RTK positioning, IMU tilt compensation and multiple communication options in a compact receiver weighing approximately 870 g. It is designed for professionals who need reliable centimetre-level positioning without carrying a large or complicated GNSS system between points.
The receiver is suitable for land surveyors, setting-out crews, civil engineers, construction teams, GIS professionals, utility contractors and drone operators who need accurate ground control or check points. It can be used as an RTK rover connected to a correction network, as part of a radio base-and-rover setup, or for static GNSS observations that will be processed later.
Full-Constellation Tracking in Challenging Locations
The X1 Pro uses a 1,408-channel GNSS board to track signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, NavIC and regional augmentation systems. Access to several constellations and frequencies gives the receiver more satellite observations to work with throughout the day.
In practical terms, this helps crews maintain productive positioning when working near buildings, beneath partial tree cover or in other locations where part of the sky is obstructed. The receiver is specified for RTK accuracy of 8 mm + 1 ppm horizontally and 15 mm + 1 ppm vertically under suitable operating conditions.
Measure with the Pole Tilted up to 60 Degrees
The integrated IMU supports tilt surveying at angles of up to 60°. Instead of carefully levelling the survey pole for every measurement, the operator can keep the pole tilted while the system compensates for its angle.
This is particularly useful when measuring building corners, points beside walls, kerbs, trenches, fences, stockpiles or locations obstructed by parked equipment. The IMU typically initializes in less than five seconds, helping crews move quickly between topographic points and stakeout positions.
Flexible RTK Corrections through 4G and UHF
The built-in 4G modem allows the X1 Pro to connect directly to NTRIP and CORS correction services using a SIM card. This makes it practical for rover work across areas covered by a suitable mobile network, without setting up a local base station for every project.
For sites that use a local base, the integrated 410–470 MHz UHF radio can transmit or receive correction data. The enhanced internal radio is specified for a range of up to 15 km in optimal conditions, although actual radio performance depends on terrain, antenna setup, interference, radio settings and local regulations.
Bluetooth and NFC simplify connection to a compatible field controller, while Wi-Fi provides access to the receiver’s WebUI. The WebUI can be used to view status information, change settings, transfer stored data and perform system updates.
Clear Status Information in the Field
A 1.1-inch OLED colour display provides direct access to important receiver information. Operators can check battery status, satellite tracking, correction data and operating modes without relying entirely on the controller screen.
Four status indicators provide additional visual feedback, while an optional speaker can deliver voice prompts. These features make it easier to confirm that the receiver is tracking satellites and receiving corrections before recording or staking a point.
Designed for Long Working Days
The integrated 6,700 mAh battery provides more than 20 hours of typical operation. Charging is handled through the USB Type-C connection, and the receiver can also be powered or recharged from a suitable power bank while working.
At approximately 133.5 mm in diameter, 67 mm high and 870 g in weight, the X1 Pro keeps the survey pole relatively light. This is valuable for crews collecting many points, walking long site routes or moving repeatedly between survey areas.
Built for Construction and Outdoor Survey Conditions
The magnesium-aluminium alloy housing is rated to IP68 for protection against water and dust. The receiver is also designed to survive a two-metre drop onto concrete. Its stated operating temperature range of −40°C to +65°C supports use across a wide range of outdoor environments.
This construction makes the X1 Pro suitable for regular use on civil engineering projects, roadworks, building sites, utility surveys, agricultural land and other locations where equipment is exposed to dust, rain and everyday handling.
Surveying and Stakeout Workflows
When used with SingularPad field software on a compatible Android controller, the X1 Pro supports common RTK surveying tasks such as point collection, detail surveying, control point work, point and line stakeout, and CAD-based field workflows.
DXF and DWG files can be used within the CAD environment for mapping and stakeout. Recorded observations can be assigned point names and codes, while coordinates and project information can be imported or exported for use in office software.
The receiver also supports static data collection. Observation files can be stored internally and transferred through USB or the Wi-Fi WebUI. Supported formats include RINEX and the manufacturer’s binary observation format, making the receiver useful for control work and post-processing as well as real-time measurements.
Typical Applications
- Topographic and cadastral field surveying
- Construction layout and as-built measurements
- Road, drainage and utility surveys
- GIS asset and infrastructure data collection
- Ground control points for drone mapping
- Earthworks, stockpile and site measurement
- Static GNSS control observations
Choosing the Correct Configuration
The correct setup depends on how correction data will be supplied. A single rover can connect to an available NTRIP correction network, while projects without suitable network coverage may require an X1 Pro base-and-rover configuration. Radio protocol, frequency and regional licensing requirements should also be checked before ordering.
Global GPS Systems can help select a suitable rover, base-and-rover set, controller, survey pole and correction service for the intended workflow. This helps ensure that communication options, accessories and software are matched to the way the equipment will be used in the field.
