(Leica Geosystems: Heerbrugg, Switzerland) -- Leica Geosystems has announced Leica SpiderQC v. 4.0 as part of the new reference station software update that also includes Leica GNSS Spider and Leica SpiderWeb. SpiderQC (previously known as GNSS QC) adds a range of advanced features for multifrequency, multi-Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data analysis, visualization, and numerous other new features, improvements, and optimizations.
SpiderQC provides a suite of tools to help select the best location for reference stations, perform quality control of the reference station data, detect site movements, and visualize and monitor the integrity of single, base, and network real-time kinematic (RTK) corrections.
The new version fully supports quality control and data analysis of Galileo and GIOVE data including the E1, E5a, E5b, and E5a+b (AltBOC) signals. Multifrequency Galileo or GPS data can be used for advanced data analysis that wasn't possible before—such as phase multipath estimation. With support for standard data formats, including RINEX v. 2.11 and v. 3.0, Leica SpiderQC is compatible with all Leica and third-party receivers. Improved handling of GLONASS interfrequency biases in v. 4.0 make analysis of data from mixed receiver types easier than before.
New features are now available for visualizing and analyzing the information recorded by Leica GNSS Spider or other reference station software when rover users connect to the system. Network operators can see who is connecting to their network and for how long, which products they are using, where they are located, the time it takes them to obtain a RTK fixed solution, and more.
Leica Nivel200 inclination sensors further improve the ability to detect real-time movements of GNSS monumentation. High-precision inclination sensors can detect small movements of the antenna independently and more accurately than the GNSS system itself. Warning messages and web-page output of status and time series now make monitoring reference stations with tilt sensors easier than before.
