Overview
Emlid Caster Pro is accessible on a paid subscription, but you can start a 1-month trial. Check the Emlid Caster Pro page to learn more about Emlid Caster Pro tiers.
Emlid Caster Pro is an enterprise version of Emlid Caster that combines features of both NTRIP caster and NTRIP service. With a ready-to-use infrastructure, you can easily build your own correction network, provide NTRIP corrections to third-party rovers, and manage connections.
NTRIP caster & NTRIP service
NTRIP caster acts as a line of communication between connected to the Internet GNSS receivers using the NTRIP protocol. With NTRIP caster, you can pass RTK corrections from the base to the rover.
NTRIP service acts as a correction network that allows you to provide access to the nearest third-party base to the third-party rovers. With NTRIP service, all your client needs is a rover and an Internet connection.
