TraceNav is the last RTK corrections service you’ll ever need. We operate a nationwide (CONUS) network that transforms precise State Space Representation (SSR) models into Virtual Base Stations (VBS) for every connected rover. The result: centimeter-level positioning over a single NTRIP connection with built-in assisted GNSS data and automatic datum alignment. It’s designed for everyone—from farmers, drone pilots, and surveyors to developers integrating high-precision GNSS into robotics, autonomy, or mapping systems.

​
What problem does TraceNav solve?

Reliable RTK requires dense Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) networks, yet traditional offerings come with:
  • Expensive, centralized infrastructure — proprietary networks with high subscription costs
  • Limited scalability — regional CORS networks can’t easily expand across large geographies
  • Coverage gaps — service typically concentrates in affluent or intensively farmed regions
  • Vendor lock-in & incompatible standards — divergent data formats, slow RTCM evolution, and closed PPP-RTK tooling

​
How TraceNav works

  • SSR-derived VBS – TraceNav delivers PPP-RTK accuracy by synthesizing virtual bases near every rover using orbit, clock, bias, ionospheric, and tropospheric models.
  • Integrated ephemeris stream – When a device connects, TraceAssist Ephemeris provides immediate broadcast data; no second mountpoint or connection.
  • TraceRouter orchestration – Sessions authenticate once, align datums automatically, and can blend with CORS data or your own bases.
  • Open-first tooling – We extend open projects such as commaai/laika to keep positioning transparent and auditable rather than a black box.

​
Who is it for?

  • Agriculture & autonomy – Tractor guidance, swarm fleets, autonomous ground rigs
  • Aerial operations – DJI enterprise drones, large-area mapping, precision spraying
  • Survey & construction – Engineering surveys, machine control, monitoring
  • Developers – Robotics, logistics, and research teams that need precise GNSS feeds
