Hahahaha love the commentary on this video, very funny, nice work guys.

It's a pity this doesn't include the marker ball locator as well, otherwise it'd be the perfect all-in-one solution.

[@SubsurfaceSolutions]

Agreed. I'm sure it will be in the near future. However, if you can map within an inch and re-locate that point within an inch would you need to use a marker ball?

[@bradentaylor1359]

just curious, what is the average offset of this GIS system?? is it more than a meter??

[@HunterGeophysicsAustralia]

Do you mean the GPS precision? It showed one of the points as being 0.5ft at 1:13 into the video.

[@SubsurfaceSolutions]

When you say 'offset' are you referring to Datum shift? If so, our app automatically adjusts for this. If you are referring to accuracy, then the SG will get down to under an inch 99% of the time. Just depends how far away you are from the base station you are using for corrections and your current view of the sky.

[@SubsurfaceSolutions]

That's a good catch. I should've picked a different point to show. I'm assuming the user started at the house and was working towards the street. If they would've started at the street with a better view of the sky they would have had a better result at that point.

Rtk pro from Vivax is way better

[@SubsurfaceSolutions]

I'm assuming you haven't tried the SG yet. If so, can you give us some insight?

[@Wildbear28]

Weighs alot more, not a fan of the Vivax. RD blows Vivax away!

Agreed the RTK Pro is great, but neither of these systems can be used with most DOT's the tolerance they require is pretty low. The RTK Pro literally does the exact same thing as the RD, and the screen looks better. I don't mind the extra weight.
