TLDR: Pre-processing prepared your measurements. Time synchronization aligned them to a common time base. Now what? The navigation engine is where sensor fusion actually happens—combining noisy GNSS, drifting IMUs, and…

Four construction workers in helmets use surveying equipment, including GNSS pre-processing tools, at an uneven, muddy site. The “point one” and “2rent” logos are overlaid at the center of the image.

When Your Surveyor Fits in Your Pocket

At a glance: Point One’s RTK corrections network is revolutionizing anthropological archaeology by providing a seamless, highly accurate, and affordable alternative to traditional base stations. The University of Pennsylvania is…

A flowchart overlaid on a topographic map shows three tiers: Corrections Data (with options like Programmable Corrections and Network RTK & SSR Algos), Software Defined Network (SDCN), and Point One API.

From Static Pipe to Programmable Corrections: Introducing SDCN

April 11, 2026

TL;DR: RTK corrections have historically been a uniform, one-way data stream — every device gets the same thing regardless of its hardware, state, or operational context. Point One’s Software Defined…

The image shows the text point one in white on a black background with a green dot pattern. The is enclosed in angle brackets and a diamond shape, creating a modern, digital look.

Device Profiles: Program Your RTK Corrections

April 10, 2026

The problem we kept hearingMost RTK corrections networks work the same way: one stream, one behavior, delivered uniformly to every device on your account. That’s fine when you’re running a…

A graphic with a blue, dotted background features a black oval in the center containing the white text PRE-PROCESSING, highlighting its key role in Sensor Fusion and Sensor Strategy.

Positioning Engine Deep Dive — Part 2TLDR: Time synchronization gets your measurements aligned. But that doesn’t mean they’re good measurements. GNSS signals bounce off buildings. IMUs pick up engine vibration.…

A view of the Panthéon in Paris at dusk, framed by Parisian buildings and cars on the street. Overlaid are the logos for point.one and Sorbonne Université, highlighting the city's blend of heritage, innovation, and robotics.

Robot Localization with Sorbonne University

At a glance: Sorbonne’s ASIMOV lab builds robots for unpredictable real-world environments, like GNSS-denied drainage tunnels and soft snake-like manipulators, where precise spatial awareness is the core challenge that makes…

Three simple clock icons are displayed in a row on a pale purple dotted background, illustrating Time Synchronization. The center clock is in a black solid circle, while the others are in dashed circles. All clocks show different times.
