What is GNSS vs GPS vs RTK?——I’m sure you also want to know this

GNSS stands for Global Navigation Satellite System and is a system that encompasses all global satellite navigation systems such as GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and Beidou.  GPS, or Global Positioning System, is a specific satellite navigation system operated by the United States government.  RTK, or real-time kinematics, is a technology used to improve the accuracy of position data obtained from satellite positioning systems such as GPS or GNSS.  RTK uses fixed base stations and rover stations to achieve centimeter-level real-time positioning accuracy.
