- eqvinox 2y agoYou're confusing 2 different things here. SBAS gets you (roughly) from 5m to 1m, to meet requirements for aviation use. RTK gets you from 5m to <0.1m. Both use base stations to monitor deviations, but for RTK the base station is intended to be <100km from you and the data needs to have as little delay as possible. SBAS base stations are a few per continent & don't care about delay to the same degree.
