A base station is comprised of a GPS antenna and receiver positioned on a known location specifically to collect data for differential correction. Base data needs to be collected at the same time as you collect data with a GPS rover unit. A base station can be a permanent installation that collects base data for provision to multiple users, or a rover unit that you temporarily locate on known coordinates for the duration of a specific project or datalogging session.
