Overview
The Skadi 200 is the entry-level RTK-enabled GNSS receiver in the Skadi Series from Eos Positioning Systems. With support for dual-frequency on all GNSS constellations, the Skadi 200 lets you obtain reliable centimeter-level RTK accuracy in the field. The Skadi 200 is compatible with any existing RTK network, CORS network, and base station. It is also compatible with free SBAS signals in areas without RTK coverage, and it is device agnostic to work with any iOS, Android, or Windows mobile device.
In addition to the accuracy and performance you would expect from any Eos GNSS receiver, the Skadi 200 also includes several advanced mapping capabilities available only in the Skadi Series product line. These include an integrated antenna and hot-swap, all-day battery pack. Moreover, the Skadi 200 can be activated with the Skadi Tilt Compensation so you can remain more productive at every point by not having to level your physical range pole.
Finally, your included Skadi Standard Handle may be optionally upgraded to the Skadi Smart Handle to take advantage of two exciting features. First, the Invisible Range Pole provides continuous elevation measurements to the ground. Additionally, the Extensible Virtual Range Pole lets you remotely capture assets located a short distance away that are on the ground and in trenches.
Skadi Tilt Compensation
When you activate Skadi Tilt Compensation, you eliminate the need to level your antenna while performing RTK data collection on a range pole. With Skadi Tilt Compensation activated, you introduce only .3 mm (.01 inch) of inaccuracy per degree of tilt.
Skadi Smart Handle
The Skadi Smart Handle is a physical upgrade to your included Skadi Standard Handle. The smart handle features two exciting and powerful features. These features include the following:
Invisible Range Pole
The Invisible Range Pole is an innovative approach to bringing the benefits of a traditional survey range pole into your hand without the cumbersome physical weight. With the Invisible Range Pole feature, you carry a virtual gimbal that keeps you plumb to the ground. Raise, lower, or tilt the receiver, your elevation to the ground is continuously computed below the Skadi receiver in your hand, thanks to the exciting combination of LiDAR and MEMS technologies.
Extensible Virtual Range Pole
This exciting and innovative feature allows you to extend the reach of your data collection beyond the position you physically occupy. Using a built-in green laser pointer, now you can “shoot” short-distance assets on the ground while retaining high accuracy. This is particularly useful for assets in trenches and similar environments. The Extensible Virtual Range Pole has an approximate range of about seven meters (23 feet) in bright sunlight conditions (performance may vary based on target reflectivity).

Testing CO2 Removal Strategies in the Pacific Northwest
The ocean plays a key role in carbon dioxide (CO2) removal and storage, also known as carbon sequestration. However, with increasing emissions, a large amount of CO2 escapes into the atmosphere, worsening climate change and leading to increases in surface temperatures. In order to mitigate some of these impacts, researchers like Ally Savoie at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are working hard to identify ways to safely improve the CO2 removal and storage capabilities in the ocean. Savoie started her career at Wright State University , where she worked in Silvia Newell’s lab examining biogeochemical cycling of nutrients in a river system. From there, she decided to pursue a master’s in marine science at the University of Southern Mississippi with Dr.
Smart Buoys Advance Climate Monitoring in Swiss Lakes
Lakes are sentinels of climate change . Globally, they are warming at an unprecedented but uneven rate, and in many places they also face direct human pressure, including from agriculture and recreation. In the Alps, scientists generally agree that climate change is of particular threat to remote lakes , where more pronounced warming threatens fragile ecosystems. Alpine Lakes in a Changing Climate Matteo Tonellotto is part of the team at the Environmental Observatory of the Italian-speaking region of Switzerland (OASI)–a multidisciplinary team of scientists, IT specialists, and chemical laboratory technicians committed to collecting, managing, and integrating high-quality environmental data.
Connecting with Nature in Real-Time at the Abernathy Field Station
Just five miles away from Washington and Jefferson (W&J) College is the 57-acre Abernathy Field Station . Generously donated by the Abernathy family in 2017, the field station has served as an outdoor lab to hundreds of undergraduate students over the years. Many classes use the Abernathy Field Station every week. For example, in BIO 111, students spend 15 weeks conducting their own research at the field station using a combination of sampling, field observations, and real-time environmental data, giving them a look into the world of science and a closer relationship with nature. “We like to start the students in the research process in their first Biology class.
Riding the Renewable Wave: Testing Wave Energy Converters at Oregon’s PacWave Site
Seven miles off Oregon’s weather-beaten coastline, the world’s biggest wave power testing facility, PacWave, is primed to put the latest renewable energy technology to the test. “There is a huge amount of energy that is not harvested in the ocean,” states the team at Oregon State University involved in the PacWave project. When it comes to harnessing the power of the waves, “It's exciting because it [wave power] is a non-polluting, non-carbon burning technology,” the team says. Wave Power The U.S. Energy Information Administration explains that tidal energy harnesses the flow of seawater in depth under the gravitational forces exerted by the sun and moon–the drivers of tides–while wave energy derives from the kinetic energy of wind-blown surface waves.
