SOUTH Insight V2/S1 GPS RTK With 1598 Channels and IMU GNSS RTK For Land Surveying Rover And Base Price
SOUTH Insight V2 is a high-performance GNSS RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) receiver, widely used in land surveying, topographic mapping, and other fields. Below is a detailed evaluation of SOUTH Insight V2:
High-Precision Positioning Capability
1.Multi-Frequency and Multi-Satellite System Support: SOUTH Insight V2 supports multiple global satellite navigation systems such as GPS, GLONASS, BDS (BeiDou), and GALILEO, and has multi-frequency reception capabilities, including GPS L1 C/A, L2C, L2P, L5, etc., which enhances positioning accuracy and reliability.
2.High-Precision Positioning Output: In differential GNSS positioning mode, SOUTH Insight V2 achieves a horizontal positioning accuracy of 0.25mm + 1ppm RMS and a vertical positioning accuracy of 0.50mm + 1ppm RMS. Under static observation conditions, its positioning accuracy reaches the millimeter level.
Efficient Data Processing Capability
1. High-Frequency Data Output: SOUTH Insight V2 supports a positioning data output frequency ranging from 1Hz to 20Hz, enabling real-time reflection of target position changes.
2. Rich Data Formats: It supports the output of various data formats, including static data formats such as STH, Rinex2.01, Rinex3.02, and differential data formats such as CMR (GPS only), RTCM 2.x, RTCM 3.x, allowing users to select the appropriate data format based on actual needs.
Convenient Operation and Communication Capability
1. Long Battery Life: Equipped with a 7.4V 6800mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery, it can continuously operate for 16 hours in static mode, meeting the demands of long-duration measurements.
2. High Protection Level: It features IP68-standard waterproof and dustproof performance, capable of withstanding prolonged immersion in up to 2 meters of water and preventing dust ingress. Additionally, it has shock and drop resistance, enduring impacts from natural falls of up to 2 meters onto concrete surfaces.
Rich Additional Features
1. Built-in IMU Sensor: SOUTH Insight V2 is equipped with an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor, providing additional attitude information such as tilt angles, which helps improve measurement accuracy and stability.
2. Visual Measurement: Some models are equipped with cameras and visual measurement functions, enabling users to have a more intuitive understanding of the measurement site.
In summary, SOUTH Insight V2 demonstrates outstanding performance in land surveying, topographic mapping, and other fields, thanks to its high-precision positioning capability, efficient data processing capability, convenient operation and communication capability, powerful battery life and protection performance, as well as rich additional features. However, specific usage effects may vary depending on the actual application scenario and user needs. It is recommended to fully understand the product performance and user evaluations before purchasing.
