OmniSTAR AirStar is satellite-based augmentation service for onshore and offshore Airborne GNSS applications. OmniSTAR AirStar currently offers three services: VBS, HP and XP. OmniSTAR VBS is the code-based service, suitable for sub-meter positioning accuracy. The HP and XP services provide sub-decimeter accuracy. The services are suitable for dynamic application above 50 m/s .

Omnistar G2 (GPS + GLONASS)
OmniSTAR G2 represents the most recent advancement in OmniSTAR subscription service offerings. It is a worldwide dual frequency high-accuracy solution which uses Orbit and Clock correction data. The addition of GLONASS to the solution significantly increases the number of satellites available. Provides short-term accuracy of 1-2 inches and long term repeatability of better than 10 centimeters, 95%. Especially suited for operations in areas where trees or buildings may block the view of the sky and in areas affected by scintillation during times of high sunspot activity.
Delivery: Via Satellite
Available worldwide
Provides better than 10 cm horizontal accuracy
Converges to full accuracy in less than 30 minutes
GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and QZSS enabled
No base station required
OmniSTAR VBS – Global Reliable Sub-Meter Accuracy
OmniSTAR VBS is the foundational “sub-meter” level of service. It is an L1 only, code phase pseudo-range solution. Pseudo-range correction data from OmniSTAR’s regional reference sites is broadcast via satellite link to the user receiver. These data are used, together with atmospheric modeling and knowledge of the receiver’s location, to generate an internal RTCM SC104 correction specific to that location. This correction is then applied to the real time solution. A typical 24-hour sample of OmniSTAR VBS will show a 2-sigma (95%) of significantly less than 1 meter horizontal position error and the 3-sigma (99%) horizontal error will be close to 1 meter.
