Wingtra's Network Corrections removes the local base station from some survey workflows

Wingtra is promoting a base-station-free correction workflow for WingtraRAY imagery using Trimble PP-RTX. Network Corrections adjusts image geotags after flight without a local GNSS base station or downloaded CORS correction files. Wingtra says the service is included with WingtraPRO and UNLIMITED.

Base setup and correction-file handling are meaningful field costs on repeated earthworks surveys. Removing that step can simplify crews and reduce the number of ways a capture day can fail.

Wingtra states 3 cm RMSE with GCPs under its documented conditions. That is not a blanket replacement for a local base on every contract. Keep independent checkpoints and use the correction method that matches the legal, contractual and tolerance requirements of the job.
