How Accurate is RTK Survey?

Under ideal conditions, an RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) survey is accurate to 1 to 2 centimeters horizontally and 2 to 3 centimeters vertically at a 95% confidence level. If the base station coordinates are wrong or the wrong geodetic datum is used, RTK will simply precisely measure the wrong location by up to several meters.

Data & Tolerance Table

The following table outlines the exact parameters and tolerances associated with this scenario to help you gauge the severity of the geodetic error.

RTK Configuration Horizontal Accuracy Vertical Accuracy
VRS / Network RTK (within 20km) 1.0 cm + 1 ppm 2.0 cm + 1 ppm
UHF Local Base Station (Optical) 8 mm + 1 ppm 15 mm + 1 ppm
Float Solution (Lost Fix) 0.2m - 1.0m 0.5m - 2.0m
Autonomous (No Corrections) 2.0m - 5.0m 3.0m - 10.0m

Geodetic Formula

RTK Accuracy = Base Absolute Accuracy + (Baseline Length ±PPM Error) + Ellipsoid/Geoid Vertical Separation

測地系のリスク

誤った測地系(例:WGS84と日本測地系)を使用すると、常に数百メートルのズレが生じます。
