Introducing the New Geode GNS3H

by | Feb 18, 2025 | Geode GNS3 GNSS Receiver, Geospatial | 0 comments

We are pleased to announce the latest GNS3H model in the Geode™ family, which now supports Galileo® High Accuracy Service (HAS), delivering free, worldwide positioning with an impressive 20 cm accuracy, further strengthening our position in the high-precision GNSS receiver market. This advancement brings powerful, high-precision positioning to users without the need for costly subscriptions or additional infrastructure. As a GNSS receiver manufacturer, Juniper Systems® has been eagerly tracking the development of Galileo HAS since its launch in January 2023, and we are now excited to integrate this cutting-edge technology into our Geode.

The Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) is a feature of the Galileo Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) developed by the European Union. ​HAS provides high-precision positioning services to users by delivering free correction data via Galileo satellites and the internet. This service is specifically tailored for applications that require greater precision than standard GNSS, making it a game-changer for industries that depend on reliable, high-accuracy location data.

Simply upgrade any GNS3H receiver to multi-frequency and instantly achieve 20 cm real-time location accuracy—no subscriptions, downloads, or extra software required. Gain 20 cm real-time location accuracy instantly with this new upgrade. Enhancing your workflow has never been easier. Whether in the field or on the move, this seamless upgrade ensures accuracy for all your GIS field data collection.

With Galileo HAS, Sub-meter becomes Sub-foot as the new standard for free and open global GNSS positioning. This enhanced accuracy will be invaluable across numerous industries, unlocking new possibilities in precision navigation, surveying, agriculture, construction, forestry, mining, archeology, and more.

The Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) enhances real-time positioning by delivering precise corrections via the Galileo E6-B signal. Currently, HAS is in its Initial Phase, with relaxed performance and convergence time standards as the European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) continues its design and testing. Once HAS reaches its Final Phase, it will provide target 20 cm accuracy with convergence times under five minutes. The best part? A Geode GNS3H with this upgrade will automatically benefit from these improvements as they roll out—no additional changes are needed.

The GNS3H continues the Geode GNSS receiver line’s legacy of GPS expert positioning with rugged, compact, and user-friendly design, making it ideal for demanding fieldwork. Built to withstand tough conditions, it maintains the Geode’s reputation for durability without sacrificing portability. The GNS3H offers a variety of accessories, including the Geode Grip which turns your Geode and data collection device of your choice into a single handheld solution, a backpack strap kit, and survey pole to further improve mobility and flexibility. With these accessories, the GNS3H is ready for any task, delivering performance and convenience in one robust package.

Galileo HAS represents a significant leap forward in positioning technology, offering unparalleled accuracy for a wide range of industries. With its ability to provide real-time, 20 cm precision, whether you’re in the field or managing complex projects, the future of GPS is here, and it’s more accurate than ever.
