Should I use Point One Open Network API or NTRIP?

Our RTK corrections network supports both legacy NTRIP clients and our native, open Point One Open Network protocol. Both output the same RTCM3 messages to your devices.

Which is right for my application?

If you already have an NTRIP client, use NTRIP. 

If you don't have a corrections client, are targeting an embedded system, or need higher security, use the Point One Open Network protocol.

NTRIP

NTRIP is a standard protocol that's the default transport protocol for most devices with out of the box RTK support. NTRIP was once an open standard, based on Shoutcast. As of 2020 NTRIP is a closed standard, with the specification requiring purchase from RTCM. However, many open source implementations are available.

Point One Open Network Protocol

Our Network Protocol is a secure, open protocol for communicating with GNSS-capable devices. It's a drop-in replacement for NTRIP and outputs the same RTCM3 messages. Use our Point One Network Client (C, C++) or use our libraries to integrate a client with your own code.
