Software Libraries
Software libraries exist for turning a low cost GPS receiver into an RTK GPS. They assume you have a receiver capable of providing phase information and a connection to a NTRIP service
- GoGPS: developed at Politecnico di Milano which supports thess hardware/services
- [
Here you can find some documents evaluation the result you might obtain by using these libraries
- Kjeld Jensen, Morten Larsen, Tom Simonsen and Rasmus N. Jørgensen. Evaluating the performance of a low-cost GPS in precision agriculture applications. RHEA-2012 - First International Conference on Robotics and Associated High-Technologies and Equipment for Agriculture September 19-21, Pisa, Italy
Hardware
You could built your own, but it has to be properly designed since it requires to handle RF parts. These resources might become the useful:
Receivers
- Evaluation kit from ublox such as the EVK-6T (295 euros on 04/12/2012) or the EVK-6PPP (295 Euros on 04/12/2012)
- UBLOX NEO-6P Precise Point Positioning Reference Board (169.99 USD on 04/12/2012) with SMA antenna connectors for UAV systems, Robots, RC, FPV or other projects.
