A practical GNSS field checklist before recording points
A short, repeatable setup check can prevent errors that are difficult to repair in the office.
Check the configuration as a connected system
Confirm the project reference, height type, point coding, antenna height, base or service settings and correction compatibility. Inspect the pole, supports, power and storage. A receiver can be fully charged and connected while still using a coordinate system or pole height from the previous job.

Start and finish with evidence
Measure suitable control before production work and repeat checks after interruptions or configuration changes. Review point identifiers and data completeness before leaving the site. Export a backup with the field notes so another person can understand the setup without relying on the operator memory.

Practical checklist
- Confirm references, pole height and correction settings.
- Check known control before collecting new features.
- Back up observations and setup notes before leaving.
Plan your GNSS setup
Compare the EQ10 and EQ20 receiver specifications, then discuss the configuration and support your project needs.
