Aptella announces it will provide free access to its AllDayRTK high-accuracy positioning services for volunteers and organisations involved in bushfire and flood recovery efforts across Australia.
In times of natural disasters, reliable positioning is critical for coordinating recovery operations, assessing damage, and restoring essential infrastructure. However, extreme weather events often disrupt permanent GNSS base stations due to power outages and loss of internet connectivity.
To address this challenge, AllDayRTK has developed an innovative Synthetic Base Station system, enabling high-accuracy positioning even when permanent bases are offline. This technology creates a virtual reference station network that ensures continuity of service in disaster-affected regions, supporting emergency response teams and volunteers where traditional infrastructure cannot.
Key Benefits:
- Free access for registered volunteers and recovery organisations.
- High-accuracy GNSS positioning for mapping, surveying, and logistics.
- Synthetic Base Station technology ensures service continuity without reliance on damaged or offline permanent bases.
“Aptella is always willing to do what we can to support volunteer services with high-accuracy positioning that assist with recovery after natural disasters and extreme weather events,” said Greg Macklin, CEO at Aptella. “Our commitment is to ensure that those on the front lines have the tools they need to rebuild communities quickly and safely.” – Greg Maklin, CEO of Aptella..
