A regular network mesh for optimal coverage throughout the territory and secure data transfer for greater reliability and repeatability on a daily basis

RTK precision positioning makes it possible to intervene again on the row while preserving your plans, for new cultivation practices such as strip-till or weeding.

The availability of the service gives the possibility of working from day to night, in foggy weather, etc. by focusing his attention on the GPS guidance tool and no longer on driving for an always impeccable result.

Repeatability over the seasons, the network allows you to always go back to the same place to control soil compaction and allow plants to take root better and the soil to better absorb inputs by limiting runoff phenomena. but also preserve your cultivation methods and techniques.

The automatic modulation of seeds, fertilizers and phytosanitary products becomes possible by using recommendation maps (yield maps, soil analysis maps, FARMSTAR) or on-board sensors (YARA type for example), but also thanks to the recommendations of experts cooperatives.

Concretely, it is a question of taking advantage of GPS autoguiding in order to optimize tillage, sowing, spreading and harvesting operations by minimizing the overlaps between passages thereby making it possible to optimize machine time, fuel consumption, tool wear and payroll.

Increased productivity and positioning quality

Full GNSS is the addition of the Galileo and BeiDou satellites to the GPS and GLONASS satellites, which allows you to significantly increase the number of satellites observed simultaneously by your GNSS antenna. With Full GNSS you work further and longer in wooded areas or bordered by buildings, where some satellites are hidden or even unusable by the equipment while maintaining a correct and precise geo-referenced position. Full GNSS also offers faster access to precise and more stable positioning thanks to the third frequency GPS and Galileo (L5) allowing easier resolution of phase ambiguities and rejection of multipaths.

1/ Orpheon N-RTK Network Subscriptions:

Provide access to unlimited “real-time” correction services for the following solutions:

The National Repeatable Centimeter Premium Service
This is the Orpheon reference service, because this type of correction makes it possible to achieve the most constant precision of the order of a centimeter in the field throughout the year.
The correction provided is repeatable, which makes it possible to return to the exact same place. These corrections can be used with an auto-steer equipped with an electric servo wheel, but you will obtain even more repeatable and precise work with a hydraulic servo wheel (factory installation or retrofit, ask your dealer) .
Due to its stability, it is the solution that offers the most possibilities and flexibility in terms of the type of work that can be performed, but also the greatest availability and precision of corrections over time, for the most common works up to to more demanding jobs.
The first Full GNSS network in France
Orphéon becomes the first Full GNSS network in France
The addition of the GALILEO and BeiDou constellations thanks to the Orphéon network is not a simple gadget, but the assurance of better daily productivity in the field.
Indeed, you can now count permanently on the constant availability of at least 6 additional satellites and bring you real advantages:
Improved positioning quality
More satellites available to calculate its position
Precise positioning even in difficult environments (near trees or buildings for example and less susceptible to interference)
Improved positioning reliability
Shorter fixation time and minimal convergence times
The advantages of the Orpheon network
Unlimited use, at any time
Constant Centimeter RTK Accuracy Full GNSS, GPS + Glonass + Galileo + BeiDou
Positioning is repeatable and allows rework
100% compatible with section cutting

RTK network work, the 6 permanent stations surrounding the equipment provide precision correction
RTK network mode, no worries if one of the permanent stations stops, the network compensates if a station stops.
The terms of commitment range from 1 to 5 years (see conditions).
No entry fee
Discounts from the second subscription

2/ Centimetric repeatable Mono-Station RTK service:

Precision at an affordable price
This type of correction makes it possible to reach a precision according to the specifications of the GNSS equipment (GPS + Glonass) used and the distance separating it from the ORPHEON station on which you are connected.
The accuracy provided is repeatable and close to the network N-RTK solution without achieving the same level of stability, but with a lower annual fee.
It thus offers a very good compromise. These corrections can be used with an autosteer equipped with an electric servo wheel, but you will get more repeatable and precise work with a hydraulic servo wheel (factory or retrofitted, ask your dealer). This solution offers a lot of possibilities in terms of the type of precision work that can be done in the field.
Unlimited use
5cm average accuracy depending on distance to permanent
station, GPS + Glonass
Minimal convergence times
Positioning is repeatable and allows rework
No geographic restriction, available nationwide
No entry fee
