PositioNZ - Real Time Service

The Toitū Te Whenua PositioNZ Real Time Service (PositioNZ-RT) streams GNSS (including GPS and GLONASS) data in real time. This free service allows users of real-time GNSS equipment to obtain positions in terms of New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 (NZGD2000) without having to set up their own base station.

Toitū Te Whenua provides 1-second streaming data from all stations in the PositioNZ network. Data streams are also available for some GeoNet stations.

The main application of the service is real-time kinematic surveying using the nearest PositioNZ station as a base station. It is recommended that users be within 15km from the connected PositioNZ station.
