About the RTK Network
The GPS Control Systems network of reference stations can connect to the following GPS manufacturers, and suppliers of GPS self-steer systems:
- Trimble
- Case
- New Holland
- Topcon
- Massey Fergusson
- Valtra
- Cat Challenger
- Claas

How it works:
- A GPS reference station transmits the RTK correction signal directly to the tractor in the field – via a VHR radio modem. The tractor’s GPS system corrects it’s position to within +/- 20mm.
Disclaimer notes:
- Service areas shown are approximate
- Tractor GPS receiver must be RTK enabled
- Some manufacturers are not supported at all sites
- Accuracy decreases with increasing range from the reference station
- RTK is “Real Time Kinematic” – accurate and relatable
- Does not need cellphone coverage to work
- No convergence or warm-up time
- Trees have minimal impact on performance
- Does not require a tripod in the field
