Works with european RGP ign server. It check for the nearest stations and download and process from 1 to 6 stations, if more than one station is used a median position is calculated. - Automatic mode with data logging>>post processing>>base station in one click, switch ost processing, put "Autostart base after processing" to "on" to enable else it will just give the results August 2017 update - new pages in the wiki : tips and tools, test results by the ENG students - added data logging from the GNSS for post processing, just choose file in output of the basestation and it's done - added save position option, you are able to save X points ypu want to record with choosen timing - added 8 custom configuration files to the original preset - added you can edit edit most of the RTKlib parameter with the gui for the 8 custom config - added display of system and GNSS time and date in solution status windows - added Push button to set PI system date and time with GPS date and time - issue : return button in edit interface may freeze the software sometimes, allway lauch a configuration after you edited one then stop to avoid that Take a look to the wiki pages for installation instructions and user manual : https://github.com/Francklin2/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/wiki # Installation For raspberry PI 3 (based on raspbian stretch) https://drive.google.com/open?id=1HOssKfLAgLO0DKe1ZVBqeMXHCmyP4w-P - Copy this image on a SD card, you can use Rufus for that : https://rufus.akeo.ie/ - Insert the SD card in your Raspberry Pi and start it. Install manually RTKBASE on a fresh image of Raspbian (tested on strech): - Open the terminal - do a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade - Download install scripts with: wget https://github.com/Francklin2/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/raw/master/RTKbase_installer.zip - Unzip the installer file in home directory (/home/pi) - Go to the folder /home/pi/Installer - Update rights for the 3 scriptswith chmod +x 1-Download_rtkbase.sh chmod +x 2-Build_rtkbase.sh chmod +x 4-Install_LCD_driver.sh - Lauch the 3 scripts in order to 1 downmload and build RTKbase 2 Install autostart and 3 install driver You can do it manually with: - clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/Francklin2/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI - Go to the RTKBASE directory: cd RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/ - Run the script to compil: ./build_rtkbase_Qt5_ARM.sh ( or ./build_rtkbase_Qt5_x86.sh on a desktop x86 PC ) - Launch RTKBASE: ./RTKBASE To install system on a raspberry pi 2 with the touchscreen you can download a raspian image with all the touchscreen drivers, Qt4 and all compilation dependencies preinstalled here : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5xmVAi4jATOcXE3a3BWS0VDUUk/view?usp=sharing It was based on this original image with only the library for the touchscreen: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2SuLGFxizpVMzRtODVkN0tZVjA/view?usp=sharing You can also download these Pré-installed image of RTKbase, RPI2 contain a master version (june 2016) with autoload and custom splash screen, the version for RPI3 contains Raspbian Jessie with drivers and the Beta version(august 2017) For raspberry PI 2 https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5xmVAi4jATOcEQ1TWxaOXprMk0 # Autostart RTKBASE at boot : Very simple but many method to do it : 1) Add software to rc.local Run : ``` sed -i -e '$i \cd /home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/ && RTKBASE\n' rc.local ``` 2) Use system root LXDE autostart : Run : ``` sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart ``` Add this : ``` @/home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/ @RTKBASE ``` 3) Use user LXDE autostart : Run : ``` nano ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart ``` Add this : ``` @/home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/ @RTKBASE ``` 4) Add desktop entry to user config : Run : ``` nano ~/.config/autostart/rtkbase ``` Copy paste entry below : ``` [Desktop Entry] Name=RTKBASE Type=Application Comment=RTKLIB Touchscreen : graphic interface to use GNSS. Exec=/home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/RTKBASE Make it executable : chmod +x ~/.config/autostart/rtkbase ``` Best way for me is option 4 because I do not use LXDE Source : http://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2014/05/how-to-autostart-apps-in-rasbian-lxde-desktop/ and kikislater # **Add a custom splash screen at boot** Install fbi `sudo apt-get install fbi` Copy the splash image splash.png from /Splashscreen to /etc/ Copy the asplashscreen file in /Splashscreen to /etc/init.d/ Make the script executable and install it for init mode: `sudo chmod a+x /etc/init.d/asplashscreen` `sudo insserv /etc/init.d/asplashscreen` To remove text message edit /boot/cmdline.txt change console=tty1 to console=tty3 and add loglevel=3 at the end of file Based on these tutos: http://www.raspberry-projects.com/pi/pi-operating-systems/raspbian/custom-boot-up-screen http://ananddrs.com/2013/09/18/rpi-hide-boot-msg/ # What will you get : ![Github Logo](http://z1300clubdefrance.pagesperso-orange.fr/wiki/RTKbase1.JPG) ![Github Logo](http://z1300clubdefrance.pagesperso-orange.fr/wiki/RTKbase4.JPG) ![Github Logo](https://github.com/Francklin2/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/blob/master/3D%20Printing/RTK_DW.JPG) Vidéo of beta build : [RTKlib Touchscreen preview](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-d_Dm6mLMMQ) [RTKBASE video Preview 2](http://www.youtube.com/edit?video_id=iNINaH6aKpc) [RTKBASE Post processing](https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=YKgk3UxPr64) # How to process data : Go to Wiki # What precision and accuracy will I get ?
