Installing rtklib

Hey all,

Just a quick few lines, which I used to successfully make rtklib under ubuntu 10.10. I am not sure if all install packages are required or not, but the following worked for me.


Download and unpack the latest version of rtklib, 2.4.1 as at October 2011

wget http://www.rtklib.com/prog/rtklib_2.4.1.zip
unzip rtklib_2.4.1.zip
cd rtklib_2.4.1/

Install the required C compiler and Linear Algebra packs

sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install automake
sudo apt-get install checkinstall
sudo apt-get install liblapack3gf
sudo apt-get install libblas3gf

Make it!

cd app/
sudo bash makeall.sh

Hi Thomas, I'm curious, what GPS hardware did you use to get this up and running? I'm looking to get a low-cost module that supports the raw outputs necessary for RtkLib. Thanks,

Hi Thomas,

I wrote an script com compile rtklib2.4.1 and aply the 5 patches under Ubuntu 11.10 x32 and x64. It is a great software.

I have one ublox-AEK4T and I got 1 centimeter for a 10km base line.
It is hard to find AEK4T,5T or 6T on u-blox resellers.

I bought a Trimble iQlassen and evaluation boar GPS-08334 from Sparkfun
but I need some eletronics to power it up. I don't know about electronics and I am afraid to blow it . I am reading a lote about it. I hope to have it running soon.

btw, with receivers are you working with ?

regarsd,
