Figure 1 — MS2net, the reference station

MS2net is a multi-band GNSS RTK reference station. As a base it knows its own position and sends RTCM corrections to the rovers: over its LoRa radio, to NTRIP casters on the Internet, and to other MS2net units over the ESP-Now radio link. As a rover it receives those corrections and reaches centimetre-level positions.

Everything is set from a web page served by the station itself: the browser of a phone or a PC is all it takes, with nothing to install.
