Hi all,
I did a field campaign with a base and a rover. I wanted to do a PPK with the respective RINEX files and the points registered. However, when I checked the saved RINEX files, I saw the list is empty. I think this might be related to the fact that I updated the firmware.
Do you think it may be related? Is there a way to recover these RINEX files?
I only downloaded the RINEX files from the base and the points registered, but not the RINEX files from the rover.
Thank you!
Hi @pabcrepe,
Did you update your rover via the Emlid Flow app or by reflashing it?
If you used the Flash Tool, it fully resets the unit, which unfortunately means any stored logs would be erased and can’t be recovered.
But if you updated through Emlid Flow, there’s a chance we can check what happened. Could you please generate a full system report and send it to support@emlid.com? Also, do you remember the log name or the date it was recorded? That might help us look into it.
Thank you, @inkar.madikyzy .
I used the Flash Tool to update the firmware. Therefore, the rover RINEX files were removed.
I do not know if there is any other option. Points were registered with the rover with a cm-accuracy in the fix mode. But I do not understand if that accuracy shown when adding the points is related to the relative position with respect to the base. In that case, could I calculate the static coordinates of the base with RINEX files (I have those from the base) and then using an accurate relative position for the ROVER?
Oh, I see. Reflashing is a pretty serious measure, and we only recommend it when nothing else works. Updating the firmware directly in Emlid Flow is a safer choice.
We still have the base logs and RTK results. The rover’s accuracy depends on the base position. Did you average the base in Single mode? If so, the results are of relative accuracy.
To get absolute accuracy, you can submit the base log to an online post-processing service. Once you get the precise coordinates, you can shift your survey results following the steps in this tip. Just ensure the PPP result and the base position from CSV are in the same coordinate system.
