Attention:
The Trimble GPS receiver provides position data for scientific devices.
Summary
The SPS461 GPS Heading and Positioning Receivers are modular, dual-antenna systems for marine construction and hydrographic survey. It may improve accuracy by using DGPS via SBAS, OmniSTAR VBS, MSK Beacon or external RTCM DGPS corrections. The receiver is equipped with a single GA530 L1/L2/OmniSTAR/Beacon/SBAS antenna. Therefore heading, roll and pitch cannot be calculated.
