PRECISE BASE2 portable base station

GNSS Receivers & Accessories

No CORS. No stable network. No problem.

PRECISE BASE2 is a fully integrated base station (receiver, antenna, radio, and battery in one unit) that broadcasts its own RTK corrections up to 30 km in open environments, so your project doesn't depend on infrastructure you don't control.

See It In Action

BASE2 in the Field

A portable, all-in-one GNSS base station that lets you build your own RTK coverage wherever external correction services aren't available or aren't reliable.

Challenge

RTK work depends on a steady stream of correction data, but that data isn't always available. Project sites in rural or mountainous regions may have no CORS network at all. Cellular coverage can be unstable or nonexistent. And projects that need an independent, project-controlled correction source can't rely on third-party network services in the first place. Any of these situations stalls RTK work or forces a compromise on accuracy.

Solution

BASE2 puts a complete GNSS base station (receiver, antenna, radio, battery, and display) into one rugged unit that broadcasts RTK corrections over a 5W UHF radio to every compatible rover in range, with no external radio or cable assembly required.

Value

You're no longer dependent on whether a CORS network reaches your project site or whether the local cellular signal holds up. You bring your own reliable correction source with you.

Key Benefits

Why BASE2

All-in-One Form Factor

SPEED: Faster field readiness

Set up and start broadcasting corrections in minutes instead of assembling separate components, valuable when the base moves more than once a day.

GNSS engine, radio, and power supply are built into one housing, so deployment is position-and-power-on, not cable assembly.

5W UHF Radio, 30 km Range

RANGE: Confident long-distance coverage

One base setup can cover a larger area, such as a large farm, a construction corridor, or a multi-site survey, reducing how often it needs to be relocated.

0W

UHF Radio Power

0km

Correction Broadcast Range

A 5W UHF radio, branded FarRadio, delivers RTK correction coverage of up to 30 km in open, unobstructed terrain; an interference self-test scans for cleaner UHF channels before broadcasting.

36-Hour Battery Life

ENDURANCE: All-day operational stability

A full day of continuous correction broadcasting without swapping batteries or plugging in external power mid-project.

0h

Battery Life (Mobile/CORS Mode)

0h

Battery Life (Base Station Mode)

Up to 36 hours of runtime in mobile/CORS mode and approximately 12 hours in base station mode on a single charge.

IP68 Rugged Durability

DURABILITY: Built for demanding sites

Keeps working through rain, dust, and the knocks of transport and setup on construction, agricultural, and mining sites.

IP0

Ingress Protection Rating

0m

Drop Resistance

IP68-rated sealing against water and dust, a magnesium-alloy body, and resistance to a 2-meter drop onto a hard surface.

Integrated Status Display

See the base's status without connecting another device

A quick glance tells you whether it's tracking satellites, broadcasting corrections, and running on adequate power, with no controller needed to check.

0.00"

Integrated Status Display

A 1.39-inch on-unit display shows GNSS, radio, and power status directly, without needing a controller, laptop, or external configuration tool.

Applications

Where It's Used

Land survey and construction control in areas without reliable CORS or NTRIP coverage
Precision agriculture across large farms where a single base needs to cover the full field
Drone/UAV mapping requiring a local, project-controlled RTK reference source
Mining and remote infrastructure projects where cellular network access is limited or unavailable
Multi-site survey operations requiring frequent base relocation between projects

Customers

What Our Customers Are Saying

Somchai Rattanakul

Thailand

Our farmland is spread over several kilometers, so we used to relocate the base two or three times. With the BASE2, one setup covers the entire area, and the FIX stays stable even near trees or irrigation structures. It's made our mapping work noticeably easier.

Carolina Méndez

Chile

For drone surveys in remote areas, I need a base station I don't have to worry about. BASE2 gives me a full day of runtime, so I can focus on the flights instead of watching the battery percentage. It's reliable from morning until evening.

János Farkas

Hungary

Mining sites are tough—dusty, noisy, and full of interference. BASE2 handles it better than any unit we've used before. It keeps a stable link, doesn't drift, and survives bumps and rough handling. It feels built for real industrial work.

Ahmed Al-Sayeed

United Arab Emirates

What stands out is consistency. Whether I'm working in open desert terrain or near construction zones in the city, BASE2 maintains a clean, reliable signal without constant adjustments. It has become our go-to base for multi-project operations.

Technical Highlights

Engineered Detail

Advanced 1,920-Channel GNSS Engine BASE2 tracks GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, QZSS, SBAS, and NavIC across 1,920 channels with anti-multipath processing, giving the base a strong satellite signal foundation even in mixed or partially obstructed sky conditions.

Interference Self-Test Before and during broadcast, BASE2 scans the UHF spectrum to identify cleaner channels, reducing the chance that local radio interference disrupts the correction link to rovers in the field.

Fully Integrated, Field-Rugged Design By combining the GNSS receiver, radio, antenna, and battery into a single magnesium-alloy, IP68-rated housing, BASE2 removes the cable connections and separate components that are the most common failure points in traditional base station setups, while still meeting the drop and environmental resistance needed for construction, agricultural, and mining sites.
