Emlid, a European maker of high-precision GNSS equipment, has partnered with Wingtra, a provider of VTOL drone technology in surveying and mapping, to contribute to the new WingtraGROUND—an all-in-one survey kit that simplifies base station and checkpoint setup.

WingtraGROUND offers turnkey infrastructure for on-site PPK surveys with WingtraONE Gen II, a VTOL drone widely regarded as the benchmark in the industry. The kit combines all elements of ground control setup—receivers, checkpoints, and tools—into a single, portable workflow, letting surveyors deliver accurate data faster and with fewer errors.

In addition to consolidating all essential hardware into a single portable set, WingtraGROUND streamlines workflows via the Wingtra tablet, providing step-by-step setup guidance. This ensures that surveyors can confirm correct receiver placement and avoid common errors due to improper base station setup and inaccurate coordinates.

Wingtra receivers, powered by the advanced features of the Emlid Reach RS3, deliver accuracy within two centimeters (0.78 inches), meeting the highest standards for aerial data validation. The receivers can be used independently for terrestrial surveys in RTK, including point collection and stakeout for topography, boundary mapping, construction, and GIS applications.
