A multi-constellation GNSS receiver used for field survey work referenced to the project frame.

Overview

A GNSS receiver is what puts a field observation into the project's coordinate system. It is the instrument behind control work, detail survey and setting out on open sites.

The reference arrangement a receiver works from is set per project, according to what the site and the agreed scope require.
