Positioning (swipos)

The Swiss Positioning Service (swipos) is based on the Automated GNSS Network Switzerland (AGNES) and enables real-time positioning accuracies at the centimeter level using GPS and GLONASS. The required observation and correction data are made available to the mobile users by means of GSM/GPRS.

swipos-NAV

swipos-NAV

Positioning service for users with accuracy needs in the meter range, like e.g. navigation, GIS data collection and mapping, forestry or conservation of the environment.

swipos-GIS/GEO

swipos-GIS/GEO

Positioning service for users with accuracy needs in the centimeter or decimeter range. Typical applications are cadastral surveying, GIS data collection or machine control and guidance.

swipos-INFRA

swipos-INFRA
The observation data of the AGNES stations are made available as real-time data streams for further processing in corresponding software packages. Applications are the monitoring of infrastructure (e.g. roads, bridges, dams) or of terrain movements (e.g. land slides, rock, glacier).

swipos-PP
