Independent RTK Positioning for Surveying and Construction
The SingularXYZ X1 Pro RTK GNSS Rover and Base Set provides the two receivers required to establish a local RTK correction link. The base receiver remains over a known or assigned point and transmits corrections to the rover, which is carried between survey, mapping or setting-out positions.
This configuration is useful on sites where an NTRIP correction service is unavailable, mobile coverage is unreliable or a project requires a dedicated local base. It is suitable for land surveyors, construction crews, civil engineers, utility contractors, GIS teams, drone operators and other professionals who require accurate coordinates without relying entirely on external correction infrastructure.
Full-Constellation GNSS Tracking
Each X1 Pro receiver uses a 1,408-channel GNSS engine to track signals from GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, NavIC and SBAS. Access to multiple constellations and frequencies gives the receiver more satellite observations to work with throughout the day.
In practical fieldwork, this improves the chance of obtaining and maintaining an RTK fixed solution when part of the sky is obstructed by buildings, trees, machinery or site structures. Anti-interference processing and the receiver’s RTK engine support dependable positioning in environments where reflected or partially blocked signals can make GNSS work more difficult.
Centimetre-Level RTK Measurement
In RTK mode, the X1 Pro provides horizontal accuracy of 8 mm + 1 ppm and vertical accuracy of 15 mm + 1 ppm. This level of performance supports common jobs such as collecting topographic points, locating site features, recording utilities, checking earthworks and setting out design positions.
The receiver can initialize an RTK solution in less than five seconds under suitable conditions. Actual accuracy and initialization time depend on satellite visibility, correction quality, baseline length, multipath, atmospheric conditions and correct field procedures.
60° IMU Tilt Surveying
The integrated IMU supports pole tilt angles up to 60°. Instead of stopping to level the survey pole for every observation, the operator can place the pole tip on the required point and measure while the pole is angled.
This is especially useful beside walls, under overhangs, close to fences, at trench edges or around parked equipment where a vertical pole is difficult to position. The IMU initializes rapidly and maintains approximately 2.5 cm accuracy within the supported tilt range. Tilt compensation improves productivity while normal survey checks and good pole handling remain important for quality control.
Flexible Base-to-Rover Communication
Integrated UHF communication allows the base receiver to send RTK corrections directly to the rover without a mobile-data connection. The internal radio operates across 410–470 MHz and can provide a working range of up to 15 km in optimal conditions.
For other workflows, the receivers also support 4G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC and RS232 communication. NTRIP client, server and caster functions allow the equipment to work with internet-delivered corrections or project-specific correction distribution. Supported correction formats include RTCM and CMR.
Actual radio range varies with terrain, buildings, vegetation, antenna height, interference and the radio settings permitted in the country of operation.
Clear Status Information in the Field
The X1 Pro has a 1.1-inch OLED colour display that shows important receiver information without requiring the operator to open the field software for every check. Status LEDs provide additional information for power, satellite tracking, correction transmission, 4G activity and static-data recording.
NFC simplifies the initial connection to a compatible field controller, while Bluetooth handles the normal receiver-to-controller link. Through the receiver’s Wi-Fi WebUI, users can check status, configure operating modes, transfer recorded data and perform system updates.
SingularPad Field Surveying Workflows
The receiver works with SingularPad field surveying software on compatible Android devices. Typical workflows include point survey, detail survey, control-point measurement, point and line stakeout, CAD-based mapping, static observation and data import or export.
For a rover-and-base project, the base can be started over known coordinates, assigned coordinates or a current autonomous position, depending on the required workflow. The rover is then configured to receive corrections through the selected UHF or internet data link. Before storing important measurements, users should confirm that the rover reports a fixed RTK solution and that correction age remains current.
Compact Receiver for Full Working Days
Each X1 Pro measures approximately 133.5 mm in diameter by 67 mm high and weighs about 870 g. The compact design reduces the weight carried at the top of the survey pole and makes the receivers easier to transport between projects.
A built-in 6,700 mAh battery provides over 20 hours of operation, depending on the selected communication and recording modes. USB-C fast charging takes approximately three hours, and power-bank charging can help keep the equipment working during extended field days.
Built for Outdoor Survey Conditions
The magnesium-aluminium housing carries an IP68 rating for resistance to dust and water. The receiver is designed for operation from -40°C to +65°C and to survive a drop of up to two metres onto concrete under controlled test conditions.
This construction makes the set suitable for regular work on construction sites, roads, agricultural land, utility projects and other demanding outdoor locations. Proper transport, routine inspection and protection of connectors help maintain long-term reliability.
Applications
The SingularXYZ X1 Pro Rover and Base Set supports a broad range of professional positioning tasks.
- Topographic and cadastral field surveying
- Construction layout and as-built measurements
- Road, drainage and utility stakeout
- GIS asset collection and infrastructure mapping
- Ground-control and check-point measurement for drone surveys
- Earthwork, stockpile and site-progress documentation
Choosing the Correct Configuration
A rover-and-base set is particularly valuable for crews that need control over their own corrections or regularly work outside established RTK network coverage. The combination of integrated radio, mobile-data capability and multiple connection methods also allows the receivers to adapt as project requirements change.
Global GPS Systems can help confirm the correct UHF frequency, radio protocol, field-controller compatibility and accessory configuration for the intended country and workflow. This is important when the equipment must communicate with existing radios, third-party receivers or regional correction services.
