Where are the sites? The latest coverage map is available on our Network Information page. The live status of every CORS is also available on our web portal.
What accuracy can I get? Anywhere where Network RTK coverage is available should provide accuracies at the 2cm level. Single base RTK will also provide this accuracy within about 20km from the base. Single base RTK accuracy will reduce the further you are from the site and 50km can be considered a typical limit for RTK solutions. Sub-metre solutions are available state-wide although 150km distance from a base is provided as an indicative figure on our coverage map.
What if I can't get mobile reception? Our users report that reception is much better than they expected. They can access CORS data in places that they cannot make a phone call. Telstra, Optus and Vodafone provide coverage maps on their websites. To improve reception, an external antenna or a radio bridge can be used.
