Trimble’s RTX automotive positioning is in the driver’s seat

The most accurate positioning available is what automated vehicles need and 1985 Trimble’s RTX fits the bill. It combines Trimble’s precise positioning IP with automotive-qualified GNSS components.


Trimble is now working supplying RTX positioning technology - based upon years of accurate positioning in the agriculture sector - with tier one suppliers and original equipment manufacturers in the automotive sector. Trimble said that its RTX is the best performing satellite-delivered correction service when measuring horizontal accuracy together with speed of convergence. The real-time centimetre-level positioning is based upon years of accurate positioning in the agriculture sector - from less than 30cm to just a few centimetres.

It is, said Trimble, a true multi-GNSS service – GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS and Galileo. Pre- and post-broadcast data integrity checks are made for optimal reliability.

Importantly, Trimble RTX is not dependent upon the hardware platform.

As connected vehicles are progressively rolled out there will come a point at which traffic managers and traffic management centres (TMCs) will have to gear up to cope with a rapidly-evolving road scenario. The TM 2.0 Platform (see box) is promoting a concept of new-generation traffic management (which carries the same TM 2.0 title) and is studying how future T
