RTK uses differential GNSS to deliver centimeter-level accuracy in real time. A base station with a known position transmits corrections to one or more mobile receivers (rovers). The system resolves integer ambiguities quickly, allowing high-precision fixes within seconds. However, RTK is sensitive to distance between base and rover — typical working range is up to 20 km. Reliable communication (radio, cellular, or internet) is essential for correction delivery. RTK is ideal where infrastructure allows consistent connectivity and line-of-sight coverage.
