CORS

CORS, or Continuously Operating Reference Station, is a network of fixed GNSS reference stations that continuously collect satellite positioning data. This infrastructure plays a critical role in modern surveying, mapping, and geospatial applications by providing highly accurate correction data to improve the precision of GNSS receivers in the field.

Surveyors, engineers, and GIS professionals use these networks to achieve centimetre-level positioning accuracy without needing to set up their own base station. By connecting to a nearby reference station, users can receive real-time corrections and perform RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) surveys with greater efficiency and confidence.

These reference networks are maintained by government agencies, universities, and private organizations, and are widely available across Canada and the United States. Equipment compatible with this technology allows field crews to work faster, reduce setup time, and maintain high positional accuracy across large project areas.
