Educational pricing for GNSS teaching and student projects
Do you teach or study GNSS, surveying, robotics, geodesy, precision agriculture, navigation, railway applications, or other engineering subjects? Do your students need to work with real GNSS equipment, but you don’t have enough receivers for everyone?
You probably already know the challenge. Your university may have one or two high-end Leica, Trimble, Topcon, or similar GNSS receivers, but sharing them between an entire class can mean booking procedures, limited field access, and students waiting for their turn.
At the same time, you may not want to put a €10,000+ professional receiver in the hands of every student team for routine fieldwork and experiments.
Educational GNSS RTK program
For roughly the price of one high-end professional GNSS receiver, you may be able to equip 10 or more teams with RTK Smart Antennas, giving students the opportunity to measure, experiment, and build their own projects at the same time. Our educational pricing for orders of 10+ units is created for this type of teaching and research use.

What can you do with 10 GNSS RTK units?
A 10-unit setup can change how students use GNSS equipment in the classroom and in the field.
- Every student can perform the RTK tests. Instead of sharing one GNSS receiver between 10 students, or watching the teacher or demonstrate the equipment, each student can have its own unit.
- Give low cost RTK equipment for field work, while keeping expensive high-end GNSS receivers for reference work. With multiple lower-cost development and RTK units, students can carry out routine experiments and fieldwork without putting the department’s €10,000+ professional receiver at unnecessary risk.
- Provide RTK hardware for semester projects, bachelor’s and master’s theses, research projects, robotics prototypes, mapping experiments, or engineering development. Instead of students competing for access to one department receiver, each team can have the equipment available for its own project.
GNSS RTK Educational sets
Choose equipment based on what students need to learn. We offer special educational pricing across our product portfolio for orders of 10 or more units. The right setup depends on whether students need a ready-to-use RTK receiver, an open GNSS development platform, or another configuration for their specific project. Here are two examples to help you get started.
RTK Smart Antennas for hands-on, high-accuracy GNSS positioning
With 10 units of RTK Smart Antenna, you can give each student team access to an RTK positioning system and field experiments:
- GNSS positioning laboratory exercises
- RTK accuracy experiments
- Robotics and autonomous systems
- Mapping and GIS projects
Good choice when: you want students to work directly with RTK positioning without building the GNSS receiver themselves.
RTK kits for learning how GNSS hardware works
The simpleRTK2B Basic Starter Kit gives students a more open platform for experimenting with GNSS technology. It can be used to introduce students to GNSS data, receiver configuration, positioning, corrections, and integration with other hardware. With 10 kits, each student team can have its own development platform.
- Learning how to configure a GNSS receiver
- Accessing and analyzing GNSS data
- Microcontroller and embedded projects
- Robotics projects
- Student research and thesis projects
Good choice when: the course focuses not only on positioning, but also on understanding and integrating GNSS hardware.
