•Provides +/- 1 inch pass-to-pass accuracy season after season, and year after year
•Allows you to use RTK precision in difficult areas such as hilly terrain because there is no line-of-sight requirement to the base station.
•No need to manually switch base stations as you move between fields — you can roam anywhere within the network and have access to the RTK correction signal.
•Requires a StarFire 6000 receiver, SF3 Ready Activation, RTK Ready Activation
•Requires John Deere Mobile RTK subscription
Selecting the right correction signal
As equipment gets larger and margins tighter, accuracy of in-field operations and input placement is more critical than ever.
When making a pass in a field, traveling from one end of the field to another, the position accuracy of the return pass is critical. Pass-to-pass accuracy means the planter guess rows will be accurate and subsequent passes are less likely to result in crop damage.
Repeatability defines how accurately the receiver calculates its position over a relatively long time window.
John Deere Mobile RTK requirements
This solution utilizes RTK correction data from the John Deere Mobile RTK network. A machine equipped with a John Deere Modular Telematics Gateway (MTG) and JDLink™ connectivity enabled can connect through the JDLink cellular network and John Deere Mobile RTK network to get repeatable RTK correction data wherever the coverage of both networks is available.
