vgurra Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Recently the ordnance of survey in my country set up a free service providing differenctial corrections over internet (NTRIP). Sounds like great news to me since I am using my GPS mostly under forest canopies that does cut out the SBAS (WAAS/EGNOS) corrections most of the time. With really good differential corrections over NTRIP I hope to be able to get consistent sub 1m accuracy even in the forrest. Setting this up should in theory consist of getting a USB to serial cable (that Garmin sells) and then connect that to a serial to bluetooth adapter that can communicate with the NTRIP service on my Android smartphone. I already got the Lefbure NTRIP client working properly on my smartphone. What is left is the "plumbing" (to connect Garmin USB->Serial->Bluetooth->NTRIP on Smartphone) Is there anyone that has done this exercise and got it working? Does & donts?
