basic information
At ALES Corporation, we utilize the unique reference points received by SoftBank Corporation to generate and distribute correction information through the ALES distribution system. By using the generated/distributed correction information along with the signals received by GNSS receivers (mobile stations), high-precision positioning with an accuracy of a few centimeters can be achieved in real-time through RTK positioning. By applying corrections with the correction information, it becomes possible to provide high-precision location information for agricultural machinery, drones, construction equipment, autonomous vehicles, and more.
