Bad Elf announces Point One Navigation, Inc. Polaris GNSS corrections available for Bad Elf Flex® Mini Extreme
Scottsdale, AZ, USA – November 28, 2023 – Bad Elf, LLC and Point One Navigation, Inc. extend their strategic relationship providing nationwide GNSS corrections services compatible with the Bad Elf Flex® Mini Extreme. As one of the first GNSS receiver partners to incorporate the Polaris GNSS corrections network, Bad Elf offers a competitive subscription service for RTK (real time kinematics) corrections throughout the continental US and parts of Europe.
“Extending our partnership with Point One Navigation for the complete Flex product line demonstrates our commitment to providing GNSS solutions that exceed our customers' expectations. By integrating Polaris Corrections into our products, we are not only providing high-accuracy alternatives, we are making geospatial accuracy accessible to a wider range of industries,” said Larry Fox, VP Marketing and Business Development at Bad Elf.
The Flex Mini Extreme offers a mapping-grade GNSS receiver with a robust RTK workflow. Using the Flex app on a cellular equipped phone or tablet, users now have a zero-configuration single button access to activate RTK corrections. Direct integration with Polaris provides simple and ubiquitous access to corrections without complicated configuration. A free trial period allows customers to verify decimeter-level (95%) results in their own operating area. Customers may then subscribe daily, monthly, or yearly, and enable nationwide service within 24 hours. No long-term contract is required, since customers may manage their subscription month-to-month.
“This integration of Bad Elf’s Flex Mini Extreme hardware and the Point One’s Polaris RTK service brings precision location with unparalleled affordability and accuracy. We eagerly anticipate the innovative applications that will emerge as precision location continues to scale to new customers and markets,” said Aaron Nathan, CEO of Point One Navigation.
