IMU-RTK GNSS
RECEIVER
The X7 GNSS receiver is more than a universal 1408-channel multi-band IMU-RTK GNSS receiver, it is the
perfect GNSS RTK survey tool that any surveying, construction or mapping professional has come to expect. Built-
in connectivity modules such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, UHF and 4G modem can be used reliably, efficiently and
conveniently in a variety of application scenarios to meet any job site configuration.
The X7 GNSS features CHCNAV's third-generation GNSS antenna and the latest iStar algorithm to increase all
GNSS signals tracking efficiency by 30%. It also integrates a premium calibration-free IMU sensor, which
greatly improves the usability and reliability of RTK GNSS surveys. Designed for extended field use and robust
performance, the X7 GNSS smart power management technology allows for up to 34 hours of continuous RTK
rover operation. The X7 GNSS provides unparalleled productivity for GNSS measurements, stakeout surveys and
other typical construction tasks.
