FAQ
Is it possible to use my current GIS software with the Emlid receiver?
Yes. Emlid receivers work seamlessly with most GIS software, mapping software, and desktop Geographic Information System platforms. For mobile positioning, the receiver streams NMEA messages directly into your existing mobile GIS solutions. For desktop workflows, Emlid Flow supports exporting data in Shapefile format. This makes it easy to integrate an Emlid GNSS receiver into any GIS and mapping workflow while preserving your established data processing and collection and analysis pipelines.
Which GIS apps do the Emlid receivers integrate with?
The Reach RX2 connects to a wide range of mobile GIS applications on both Android and iOS devices including ArcGIS Field Maps, Global Mapper, Mergin Maps, Survey123, QField, and Avenza Maps. It pairs via Bluetooth and uses your phone’s 4G LTE mobile data connection for RTK corrections and high accuracy. This ensures stable location data delivery into many popular mapping tools. As a high-performance GIS mapping equipment device, the RX2 fits naturally into modern geospatial workflows across industries.
Does my team need any surveying experience to collect GIS data with Emlid?
No, your team does not need previous surveyor or land surveying experience. The Reach RX2 is an all-in-one, intuitive tool designed for efficient field data collection and field work. Users can collect GIS data with mapping-grade, centimeter-level accuracy without needing professional surveying equipment training.
What level of accuracy do Reach receivers provide?
The Reach RX2 GPS receiver delivers centimeter accuracy with real-time kinematic GNSS technology. Its high-performance antenna ensure stable, precise position delivery even in complex environments. And even if your project only requires sub-meter or sub-foot accuracy, the RX2 can serve you even better—providing a higher level of precision and reliability.
What types of GIS tasks benefit most from the Reach RX2?
The Reach RX2 is ideal for a wide range of geospatial tasks. Municipalities, utilities, state & local government, forestry, agriculture, environmental monitoring, transportation, and public works all rely on accurate field operations and efficient mapping systems. With reliable GNSS receiver performance and support for 2D and 3D mapping, the RX2 is suited for asset inventories, infrastructure updates, vehicle positioning, site inspections, and everyday field data capture. Its high dependability helps teams enhance productivity and generate modern GIS products that improve organizational workflows.
Does RX2 come with its own data collection software?
Yes. The Reach RX2 works with Emlid Flow, a powerful data collector application designed for different application, including mapping and GIS workflows. It also includes a cloud-based Emlid Flow 360 for real-time sync between the field and the office and team collaboration.
1 – The tilt compensation feature is always available in Emlid Flow. If you are using third-party software, ensure that it supports tilt-compensated data.
