How many GNSS stations are used in the SPSLux network and where are they located?

The SPSLux stations receive GNSS satellite data round-the-clock and send it to the authority’s data center for further processing and analysis. The network includes 13 continuously operating reference stations, although some of them are on international territory and managed by other network service providers. Integrating foreign reference station to the SPSLux network increases accessibility for network RTK correction and availability during breakdowns of single stations.

The spatial distribution of the GNSS reference stations is shown in the map below:

The following table contains the five national GNSS reference stations managed by the Luxemburgish cadastre and mapping agency:

ID	Site Name	DOMES Number	Sitelog	Sat. Systems
BASC	Bascharage	13703M001	BASC_Sitelog	G / R / E / C
ECH2	Echternach	13704M001	ECH2_Sitelog	G / R / E / C
ERPL	Erpeldange (Bous)	13706M001	ERPL_Sitelog	G / R / E / C
ROUL	Roullingen	13705M001	ROUL_Sitelog	G / R / E / C
TROS	Troisvierges	13707M001	TROS_Sitelog	G / R / E / C

The national GNSS reference station KBG2 is managed by the department of engineering of the university of Luxembourg:

ID	Site Name	DOMES Number	Sitelog	Sat. Systems
KBG2	Kirchberg	unassigned	-	G / R / E / C

The antenna calibration files of the national reference stations can be downloaded below as ANTEX (ANTenna EXchange format) files.

As already mentioned, the SPSLux network incorporates foreign GNSS reference stations. Three of them are managed by the German network provider SAPOS , two by the Belgium network manager WALCORS, one by the French network manager ORPHEON and one by the French network provider SAT-INFO. For further information please contact the appropriate network manager.

ID	Site Name	DOMES Number	Network Manager	Sat. Systems
0929	Merzig	unassigned	SAPOS	G / R / E / C
0531	Rodershausen	unassigned	SAPOS	G / R / E / C
0534	Trier2	unassigned	SAPOS	G / R / E / C
ARLO	Arlon	unassigned	WALCORS	G / R / E / C
MABO	Mabompre	unassigned	WALCORS	G / R / E / C

A list, containing ITRS, ETRS89 and LUREF coordinates of the SPSLux GNSS reference stations can be downloaded below. The published coordinates refer to the station reference point. Regarding the national GNSS reference station, the station reference point equals the antenna reference point. Antenna reference point and station reference point may vary in case of the international GNSS stations. For further information please refer to the appropriate network manager.
