3DM-GX5-GNSS/INS

The 3DM-GX5-GNSS/INS all-in-one navigation solution features a high performance integrated multi-constellation GNSS receiver utilizing the GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo satellite constellations. Sensor measurements are fully calibrated, temperature-compensated, and mathematically-aligned to an orthogonal coordinate system for accurate outputs. The highly linear sensor performance and auto-adaptive estimation filter algorithm produces exceptionally accurate computed outputs under real-world dynamic conditions.
