Reach RS2 accuracy test in the USA
E38 Survey Solutions, based in Richfield, OH, USA, surveyed an area with Reach RS2 and compared its accuracy to another RTK receiver. The surveyors selected nine locations with diverse difficulty levels for the test: clear sky view, locations near trees, and next to a building obstructing a sky view.

Open-pit mine design
Reach RS2 helped our users design a gold mine pit in Alaska. The team surveyed drill collars with centimeter accuracy and exported the results to a GIS app for pit design. Then they used established base points to place GCPs for progress monitoring.

Topographic survey on the coastline
Photogrammetry for a maritime concession in Punta Arenas, Chile, was a challenging project for Kenos Drones. The team used Reach RS2 for RTK topographic survey at sub-zero temperatures. They lifted high and low tide lines from the coast of the Strait of Magellan.

Place the local base on your worksite or connect to NTRIP
2.
Configure the correction output and input
3.
You’re all set. Now you can collect points and stake them out with the rover
Survey with your customary data collector and software
Reach RS2 / RS2+ provides data in standard NMEA that is used by most GIS and survey apps. Simply connect your device to Reach over Bluetooth or via cable, and turn on “Position output” in Emlid Flow.
Pair with industry-standard data collector
Enjoy your work with Reach RS2 / RS2+ and any regular data collector. Stream NMEA data via Bluetooth.
Work with popular survey software
We’ve successfully completed the tests with the leading land survey software MicroSurvey FieldGenius. Reach RS2 / RS2+ pairs with most types of traditional data collectors via Bluetooth or USB and feeds the coordinates to MicroSurvey FieldGenius in NMEA format. Check out our FieldGenius Setup guide to get started!

Get corrections over NTRIP
With Reach RS2 / RS2+, you can access or broadcast corrections over NTRIP independent of the Internet connection on your device. Reach RS2 / RS2+ features a power-efficient 3.5G HSPA modem with 2G fallback and global coverage.
Log raw data for PPK
Reach RS2 / RS2+ logs industry-standard RINEX files. Enable raw
data recording to download and post-process it with popular PPK software.
Get absolute accuracy with PPP
Antenna calibration details for Reach RS2 / RS2+ are added to NOAA’s
National Geodetic Survey registry. The post-processing will be flawless with OPUS, AusPos,
NRCan, and other PPP services.

Volumetric measurement
Fermat Topografia, Costa Rica
With Reach RS2, our users defined initial points for future earthworks in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. They then used the initial points as reference points and ran an RTK survey for volume calculations to verify the amount of removed material. Reach RS2 had great reception even in tight spots.

Boundary survey
Jaime Martinez, surveyor, Chile
With Reach RS2, the surveyor placed 200 points to establish farmland properties in San Pedro, Chile. He then imported the dataset to Civil AutoCAD to bring the cadastral plan up to date. After that, he placed stakes with centimeter accuracy to mark the boundaries of each plot.

Surveying in the woods
Grzegorz Krukowski, surveyor, Poland
RReach RS2 helped our user conduct a topographical land survey in Northern Poland woods. Even though the terrain was pretty challenging, the surveyor managed to measure points in places where the sky wasn’t quite visible.

Construction of a dairy barn
Brent Wiebe, drafting technician, Canada
Using Reach RS2, Brent Wiebe from Canada placed GCPs for a drone mapping project. When the CAD files were finished, our user imported them to the ReachView app for laying out the project on-site. Ultimately, this helped to approve the construction of a new dairy barn.

Topographic survey in the water
Fermat Topografia, Costa Rica
Our users undertook the topographic survey as a part of a floodplain research project. The team used Reach RS2 to determine the deepest areas of the Aranjuez River most likely to be affected by flooding. This dataset helped them create a contour map of potential flood zones.
