StarCORS is a complete GNSS correction network: reference stations, correction server, private radio and rovers, installed and run inside your own perimeter. No cloud, no subscription, and no position data leaving your network. Designed and built in the UAE.
Most centimeter positioning runs on cloud correction services. To get a network RTK correction, each rover sends its position to the provider, every second. Over time that becomes a full record of where your vessels, vehicles and machines operate, held by a third party, often abroad.
Per-rover subscription. The service stops when payments stop.
Owned by you. Broadcast is the standard setup, so rovers only receive.
Every part of the chain sits inside your perimeter. Nothing depends on the public Internet or on an outside provider.
Permanent GNSS stations with choke ring antennas track GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and BeiDou around the clock.
The StarCORS correction server on your premises turns station data into corrections and checks every station’s health.
A dedicated UHF radio network carries corrections to the field. Your own fiber or IP network can be used as well.
Rovers on vessels, vehicles and machines compute centimeter positions, inside the station network and well beyond it.
Corrections are broadcast one way, once per second. Rovers only receive and never transmit, so their position is never disclosed.
For millimeter-level network RTK. The rover reports its position, but only to your own server.
Competing VRS services work only inside the polygon formed by their reference stations. StarCORS works inside it and far outside it, including at sea.
| Method | Accuracy, plan | Accuracy, height | Fix time | Coverage | Rover link |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Network RTK (VRS) | 5 mm + 0.5 ppm | 6 mm + 0.5 ppm | A few seconds | Regional | Two-way UHF |
| SSR2OSR | 8 mm + 0.5 ppm | 10 mm + 0.5 ppm | Tens of seconds | Regional | Broadcast |
| PPP-RTK | 2.5 cm | 2.0 cm | Tens of seconds* | Regional | Broadcast |
| PPP-AR | 2.5 cm | 2.0 cm | 5–15 minutes | Extended regional or global | Broadcast |
* Depends on the distance to the station network. GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and BeiDou, with RTCM v3 output.
Testing showed accuracy, convergence time, availability and reliability comparable to leading commercial solutions, and better in selected scenarios. Full results are available on request.
Hardware, software and radio from one team, designed to work together and delivered under your own brand if you wish.
A rugged, complete station for permanent installations, geodesy and structural monitoring, built for 24/7 operation.
Suppresses multipath for a stable phase center, the foundation of network accuracy.
Configured from basic to advanced for each application: survey, machines, vehicles or vessels.
Computes corrections and manages the whole network from your own servers, on-premise or in private infrastructure.
A dedicated UHF network replaces the Internet. It is built with mission-critical SATEL radio components, assembled in the UAE, with encrypted links. Relay stations every 20–50 km extend the data link where needed.
The same radio technology carries GNSS corrections across the Panama Canal.
StarCORS continuously measures the baselines between its own stations, with thresholds as low as 1–2 cm. When a baseline changes, an alert is raised in StarCORS or in your existing monitoring tools.
Your positioning network doubles as an early warning for ground and structural movement, with no extra infrastructure.
Security is a property of the whole system, not an external service you depend on.
Rubidium clocks in stations and high-end rovers give an independent, ultra-stable time scale. Attempts to shift satellite signals show up as sharp jumps and are caught.
The network sends a verified set of satellite orbit data over a secure side channel. Rovers compare it with what the satellites broadcast and raise an alert on any mismatch.
Each station knows its exact coordinates, so it knows what it should measure. Outliers are flagged before corrections are generated, so manipulated data never reaches rovers.
StarCORS is a one-time purchase, sized by service area and number of rovers. The annual fee covers support and updates only. The network keeps running without it.
| Aspect | Cloud subscription services | StarCORS |
|---|---|---|
| Where corrections are computed | On the provider’s cloud servers | On your own premises |
| Your rovers’ positions | Sent to the provider with every request | Never sent to a third party |
| Internet dependency | Required, usually over LTE | None: private radio or your own fiber |
| Commercial model | Recurring per-rover subscription | One-time purchase; optional support fee |
| If payments stop | The service stops | The network keeps running |
| Working area | Inside the station polygon only | Inside the polygon and up to ≈ 300 km beyond it |
| Branding | The provider’s brand and service | Fully white-label, fully yours |
Jamming and spoofing can take satellite positioning away. We are developing a terrestrial positioning layer in the UAE: ground transmitters at known positions create a local radio-navigation field, and integrated rovers combine it with GNSS and other sensors.
Both deployment concepts are developed and mathematically validated. Partners who co-invest get a capability designed around their own ports, facilities and sea areas, and the first pilot deployment.
