Phantom 4 RTK - How to PPK?

[MichaelL]

What version of RTKLIB are you using?

@Macenroe82

I opened RTKPost and in the RINEX OBS: Rover field, I brought in the PPKRAW.obs
in the RINEX OBS: Base station I brought in the .19o
and for the RINEX NAV field I brought in the .19n

You might want to try the P4RTK NAV file.

I would like to use the D-RTK 2 base but the one and only successful flight I had, the images were all tagged with the wrong elevation - the geoid height above the WGS 84 Ellipsoid wasnt taken into account.

In RTKPOST did you enter the known coordinates and elevation for the base in the Positions tab?

@Macenroe82

I converted my .pos file and the Timestamp.MRK into the Aerotas spreadsheet to create an image tag file.
But its not working for me.

I typically create a GPX file through GeoSetter and retag the photos so you don’t have to do any manipulation in the processing software. Does the P4RTK create events in the POS file? It would show up as a separate file being that you will have one full-track without events and another with them. If not then I would contact Aerotas.

@Macenroe82

I tried setting the base up over a known point and then going into the advanced settings on the DJI GS app to add the proper lat and long and elevation in decimal degrees, but I only get an error saying im more than 50 meters away from that coordinate.

This happens quite allot when comparing averaged coordinates between different receivers. This is why allot of people like to use CORS or VRS services, but I have never used them myself and have had no need to. How long was the D-RTK2 setup before you entered the coordinates and made it active? Does your site have a localization?

Hopefully someone can chime in that has a more similar workflow to yours, but here is a thread by @GregO that may help.
