CONNECTING TO NAVPAK
Forsberg’s NAVpak software suite provides real-time and post-processing quality control for a range of GNSS
receivers. The data is displayed in real-time and logged-to-file for monitoring navigational accuracy and the
receivers’ Built-In-Test. The graphical design of time-windowed graphs and sky plots simplifies the examination
of logged data and provides an advanced quality diagnosis tool.
NAVpak is offered as a free product but with premium features. The premium features are activated through a
Sentinel Key Dongle.
