SPAN: WORLD LEADING GNSS+INS TECHNOLOGY

Synchronous Position, Attitude and Navigation (SPAN) technology brings together

two dierent but complementary technologies: Global Navigation Satellite System

(GNSS) positioning and Inertial Navigation System (INS). The absolute accuracy of

GNSS positioning and the stability of Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) gyro and

accelerometer measurements are tightly coupled to provide an exceptional 3D

navigation solution that is stable and continuously available, even through periods

when satellite signals are blocked.

SPAN ENABLED MEMS RECEIVER

The PwrPak7-E2 contains an Epson G370N MEMS IMU to deliver world class

NovAtel SPAN technology in an integrated, single box solution. Built on top of the

reputable PwrPak7 family, with a higher performance Epson IMU, it provides seamless

positioning, quick alignment and excellent performance. This product is commercially

exportable and provides an excellent midrange price/performance/size GNSS+INS

solution.

FUTURE PROOFED SCALABILITY

Capable of tracking all present and upcoming GNSS constellations and satellite signals,

the PwrPak7-E2 is a robust, high precision receiver that is soware upgradable in the

ﬁeld to provide the custom performance required for your application demands.

The PwrPak7-E2 has a powerful OEM7 GNSS engine, integrated MEMS IMU, built in

Wi-Fi, on board NTRIP client and server support, and 16 GB of internal storage. It also

has enhanced connection options including serial, USB, CAN and Ethernet.

PRECISE THINKING MAKES IT POSSIBLE

Developed for ecient and rapid integration, our GNSS products have set the standard

in quality and performance for over 20 years. State-of-the-art, lean manufacturing

facilities in our North American headquarters produce the industry’s most extensive

line of OEM receivers, antennas and subsystems. All of our products are backed by a

team of highly skilled design and customer support engineers, ready to answer your

integration questions.

10 Supplied by IMU manufacturer.

11 Typical value. Consult the OEM7 User Documentation for power supply considerations.

12. GNSS only. IMU measurements may not be valid.

13. 1 ppm should be added to all position values to account for additional error due to baseline length.

14. Post-processing results using Inertial Explorer soware. The survey data used to generate these statistics had frequent changes in azimuth.
