Overview
With Vega 34, heading and positioning are scalable and field upgradeable with all Hemisphere software and service options. Utilize the same multi-constellation GNSS solutions in either single-frequency mode or employ the full performance and fast RTK initialization
times over long distances with multi-frequency signals. High accuracy L-band positioning from meter to sub-decimeter levels is available via the Atlas correction service.
The Vega 34 uses dual antenna ports to create a series of additional capabilities including fast, high-accuracy heading over short baselines, RTK positioning, onboard Atlas L band, RTK-enabled heave, low-power consumption, and precise timing.
Leverage the industry standard form factor for easy upgradeability from other manufacturers’ modules.
Features
