\"SNIP_Cloud\"<\/a>The RTK2go<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>service is a cloud based open public NTRIP Caster<\/a> located at www.RTK2go.com<\/a><\/p>\n

This service is provided free to all parties and is intended to support users that do not have access to a static IP of their own, or who do not care to operate their own NTRIP Caster<\/a> with a professional tool like SNIP<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n

You may freely send your own data to the RTK2go<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>Caster and may connect as many NTRIP Clients<\/a> (rovers) to it as you desire.\u00a0 See the site for more connection details.\u00a0 You may want to establish a reservation<\/em> assignment for your data stream as well; again, see the site for details.<\/p>\n

The RTK2go<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>site is built on the same robust SNIP<\/strong><\/span> Caster software you can download here.\u00a0 It is running a Pro<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>edition which has some additional features for managing user connections. The freely available Lite<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>copy of SNIP<\/strong><\/span> may be all you require for your own network. Please see the SNIP<\/strong><\/span> download<\/a> page.<\/p>\n

If you have a GNSS device you want to be a Base Station, either use SNIP<\/strong><\/span> to run your own NTRIP Caster<\/a>, or forward the data to RTK2go<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>as your own cloud based public Caster, or use a local copy of SNIP<\/strong><\/span> to connect to your GNSS devices with one of its many supported stream types<\/a> to forward this data to RTK2go<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>for others.<\/p>\n

Of course we prefer that people purchase and operate SNIP<\/strong><\/span> on their own machines (as that is what it was developed for).\u00a0 But there are no issues with using your copy of SNIP<\/strong><\/span> (or any other NTRIP Server<\/a> or NTRIP Caster<\/a> device you desire) to send your data to RTK2go<\/strong> <\/em><\/span>.<\/p>\n

\"rtk2go200x300\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Prefer a cloud of your own?\u00a0 Select, download, and host<\/a> SNIP<\/strong><\/span> on either Windows 32\/64 or Ubuntu 32b machines in your own shop.<\/p>\n
