Rugged and IP67 rated, the receiver is made to withstand harsh environments, and it also includes an internal removable battery, which acts as a built-in uninterruptible power supply. The ProFlex 500 CORS has equal utility as either a field campaign receiver or a portable or permanent base station for either post-processed or RTK applications. In addition to delivering raw data files in Ashtech Optimized Messaging (ATOM) or Rinex format, the ProFlex 500 CORS can simultaneously deliver real-time RTK corrections in ATOM, RTCM 2.3 & 3.0 & 3.1 or CMR & CMR+ format in multiple ways, including Direct IP, NTRIP server, radio, GSM modem, Ethernet data streaming as a server or a client with up to 9 virtual IP ports available, each with a specific data format. The BLADE technology ideally matches data to application as a full CORS or campaign receiver for either post-processing or RTK applications. The ProFlex 500 CORS has been extensively tuned to provide the highest quality raw data and specific observation masks to ensure the perfect synthesis, specific to each application, between quality and availability. Conversion to RINEX employs Hatanaka compression, and the internal memory can easily be expanded through the addition of USB flash or external hard drives. Users can choose to automatically use FTP push to securely upload data files or the embedded FTP server to manually retrieve data.

The embedded FTP server permits the administrator to perform maintenance steps remotely and allows authorized users to download raw data files directly from the receiver. Programming sessions allows users to retrieve any stored GNSS, meteorological and tilt sensor data, while a ring file memory ensures the most recent data are always available. It offers an easy to configure web server interface, instant real-time multi-data streaming, full meteorological and tilt sensors support, and fully integrated communications, including Ethernet, GSM/GPRS, UHF radio and Bluetooth. Today, we simply introduce the best ever Ashtech reference station.” The superiority of ProFlex 500 CORS begins with Ashtech’s BLADE™ signal processing technology enabling it to provide the highest quality GNSS raw data using measurements from three constellations, GPS, GLONASS and SBAS.

Istanbul, Turkey, – Ashtech today, at the INTERGEO EAST conference, introduced the ProFlex 500 CORS, an advanced, multifunctional Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS) designed to collect, store and transmit high quality GNSS data for multiple applications, including a CORS and a field campaign receiver, for either post-processed or RTK applications.Īccording to Olivier Casabianca, product marketing manager: “Ashtech has a strong and natural legacy in manufacturing reference stations.
