NavCom's VueStar is the only complete global aerial survey navigation system. Survey an area, a country or even the globe with VueStar, a self-contained system providing real-time accuracy over large areas previously attainable only by post processing. Gone are the costs and logistical difficulties of establishing multiple reference station sites and the time consuming need to post-process recorded data.

Performance

Photogrammetry, LIDAR, SAR and other Remote Sensing Aerial Survey applications can rely on the real-time, decimeter results provided by VueStar. VueStar delivers precision navigation by combining NavCom's leading edge, dual frequency GPS receiver with NavCom's StarFire Network, a Global Satellite Based Augmentation System (GSBAS). The VueStar system, equipped with a single FAA certified tri-band antenna that receives both GPS and StarFire signals, provides decimeter navigation in real-time without the need for local reference stations.

Benefits

The VueStar aerial survey package is the only system of its kind providing a reliable, cost-effective solution for aerial surveyors. Maximizing the advantages of the global StarFire Network, the system eliminates the range limitations of terrestrial communication links as well as the dependency on post-processing recorded data using ground based reference stations. Not only does VueStar provide surveyors with the ability to return customer surveys in days rather than weeks, but it also frees ground based survey crews to work on other projects.

The VueStar package comes complete with NavCom's SF-2050M dual frequency receiver providing position and velocity up to 10 times a second, all necessary cabling, a combined GPS/StarFire aircraft certified antenna, internal data logging, event input, 1pps output and a one-year global StarFire license. Detailed Installation and User manuals are included as well as a web-based training course and NavCom's commitment to excellence in customer support.

StarFire Network

StarFire utilizes a network of more than 50 GPS reference stations around the world to compute GPS satellite orbit and clock corrections, two completely redundant processing centers and multiple communication links to ensure the continuous availability of GPS corrections. These corrections are broadcast via three geostationary satellites providing worldwide coverage and enabling precise real-time navigation without the need for a ground base station. StarFire is a global subscription service for the distribution of GPS corrections providing exceptional reliability and unprecedented accuracy of better than 10cm (4inches). The StarFire signal is available virtually anywhere on the Earth's surface on land or sea from 76°N to 76°S latitude.
