Our Most Affordable Skadi Series™ GNSS Receiver for Submeter Field Work
The Skadi 100™ is our entry-level GNSS receiver in the Skadi Series™ from Eos Positioning Systems®. With single-frequency support for all GNSS constellations, the Skadi 100 lets you obtain submeter, mapping-grade accuracy in the field using only freely available satellite-based augmentation systems (SBAS) signals. The Skadi 100 is device agnostic to work with any iOS®, Android™, or Windows® mobile device.
In addition to the accuracy and performance you have come to expect from any Eos GNSS receiver, the Skadi 100 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 to support any field mounting configuration. With the Skadi Standard Handle™ that is included in every Skadi 100 purchase, you can seamlessly switch from a handheld field configuration to a range-pole setup and more.
Choose a Differential Corrections Source
SBAS
Use the Skadi 100 on most continents with free Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS) corrections for 40-60 cm accuracy in most conditions.
Atlas® H50 Service
The Skadi 100 is able to receive an optional Atlas® H50 satellite subscription service worldwide when no SBAS is available. This provides an estimated accuracy of 30 to 50 cm (HRMS).
Skadi 100’s Advanced Mapping Features
The Skadi 100™ is the only multi-constellation, device- and app-agnostic GNSS receiver in the Skadi Series™ product line designed to maximize worldwide submeter accuracy from free SBAS corrections or from an Atlas H50 subscription. With support for four global GNSS constellations, the Skadi 100 is one of the most advanced single-frequency submeter GNSS receivers on the market. Moreover, the Skadi 100 takes advantage of brand-new Skadi Series features including shapeshifting in the field and the Skadi Standard Handle™. Learn more about these cutting-edge GNSS advancements and how they boost your accuracy and productivity.
Shapeshift in the Field
The Skadi 100 features an integrated antenna and hot-swap, all day battery. These let you work all day in the field with the flexibility of changing your field mounting setups — without wasting time handling any clunky mounting gear nor having to restart your receiver. he Skadi 100’s innovative design and hot-swap battery let you seamlessly move between the included Skadi Standard Handheld configuration, a full or half-sized surveying range pole, and a backpack range pole, for example. Additionally, an external antenna port and cables are available for those who’d wish to mount to a vehicle or use in a hands-free carry-on setup (e.g., backpack, safety vest, chest pack).
Skadi Standard Handle™
The Skadi 100 comes with the Skadi Standard Handle™, an ergonomic handheld device that allows you to easily combine your mobile smartphone or tablet and GNSS receiver in a flexible, light-weight single hardware setup. Additionally, the Skadi Standard Handle comes out of the box with the correct brackets that free your device’s camera to support any iOS®, Android™, or Windows® smartphone or tablet — no additional purchase necessary.
Submeter Accuracy Worldwide
The Skadi 100 can connect to any free SBAS system, which are currently available in many regions worldwide. Additionally, if an SBAS is not available, you can connect the Skadi 100 to an Atlas H50 subscription to obtain corrections anywhere in the world, including the most remote disconnected environments.
Submeter Accuracy with Worldwide SBAS
Using only the free corrections from an SBAS, the Skadi 100 provides 40-60 cm-level real-time accuracy. Furthermore, the Skadi 100 can be subscribed to an Atlas H50 correction service for 50 cm accuracy anywhere in the world.
Excellent Performance
The Skadi 100 is optimized to provide the highest accuracy possible in tough conditions, including dense canopy and urban cityscapes.
Full Flexibility
The Skadi 100 is our most affordable GNSS receiver that contains the same accuracy and performance you’ve come to love about the Arrow Series® while also offering an integrated antenna and in-field shapeshifting capabilities (e.g., shift from a handheld configuration to a range pole mount or dropped in a safety vest pouch using an optional external antenna).

What is SBAS?
SBAS stands for Satellite Based Augmentation System. Government-operated SBAS systems around the world provide a free source of corrections to augment GNSS (positioning) signals. An SBAS-compatible GNSS receiver, such as the Skadi 100, receives and processes these free submeter differential corrections in real time, resulting in live submeter positioning with no post-processing required. The Skadi 100 supports all worldwide free SBAS, including WAAS in North and Central America, EGNOS in Europe and northern Africa, GAGAN in India, MSAS in Japan, and SouthPAN in Australia/New Zealand, along with current SBAS in test mode and all future systems.
