The PositioNZ Network is run in partnership with GNS Science through the GeoNet Project. The stations are also part of the GeoNet network used to monitor natural hazards in New Zealand.
The PositioNZ network enables users to position points with an accuracy that approaches a few centimetres relative to NZGD2000 both horizontally and vertically. The network collects data from the United States Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Russian GLONASS satellite constellations.
Toitū Te Whenua provides static GNSS data in the form of RINEX through the PositioNZ RINEX Archive, real time RTCM streams through PositioNZ-RT and a post processing service called PositioNZ-PP. These products and services are used by surveyors, engineers, geospatial professionals, scientists and commercial providers. All data is freely available for reuse under LINZ copyright.
