Leica SmartNet is Britain’s first commercial RTK
Network. Leica SmartNet provides an RTK and
DGPS correction service for any professional
with a GPS receiver that can accept RTK or
DGPS corrections broadcast by GSM or GPRS.
So whether you own a Leica Geosystems GPS
receiver or other make of GPS receiver you will
have equal access to the service.

With Leica SmartNet there is no setting-up time
for a local reference station, no security issues in
leaving the reference station, no transformations
needed and no cost of a reference station and an
employee to ensure security. Now, you can perform
construction stakeout, topographic surveying,
precision GIS data collection and machine control
more effectively and quicker than ever before. Arrive
on-site, switch on and start working!

What makes Leica SmartNet so smart?
The most important part of any network is the
reference station infrastructure and Ordnance

Leica Geosystems has become the first company to acquire the raw data stream from Ordnance Survey’s ‘OS Net’, a network of 95 reference stations around Great Britain, which is planned to extend to 120 by the end of the year, each
streaming raw data, second by second, from Ordnance Survey’s HQ in Southampton. OS Net is exclusively for use by Ordnance Survey’s own surveyors and third-party partners, including Leica Geosystems. Leica SmartNet takes the raw data stream and calculates its own correction services for widespread commercial use for its customers.

The SmartNet service is continually being developed and Leica Geosystems has joined forces with The Survey Association and other professional partners to install additional reference stations at key locations around the country, helping to extend the existing network to a target of up to 150 stations. The extra stations will be used to give greater
density, enhanced redundancy and the opportunity to use some stations as Quality Assurance monitoring sites.
