The StarFire™ 6000 Receiver
You can choose the accuracy you need, ranging from plus-or-minus 6 inches (good enough for many broad acre applications) down to sub-inch accuracy with RTK.
Signal Accuracy
Using our own StarFire™ network we can provide you with a reliable, accurate, and repeatable signal customized to your needs, delivering the accuracy and control you demand. Developed in 1998, the StarFire network was the world’s first Global Satellite-Based Augmentation System (GSBAS) capable of decimeter real-time accuracy.

TEchnology Thursday
Our weekly Technology Thursday videos briefly cover ways to add more value to your operation.
JDLink
The JDLink telematic solution, included on most tractors, combines, sprayers and self-propelled forage harvesters since 2011, communicates via cell signal from the machine to MyJohnDeere.com. Through JDLink, easily monitor machine performance, view location history, receive alerts, view the GS3 2630 display remotely and send setup, prescription and documentation files wirelessly.

RTK Network
StarFire™ RTK provides highly accurate corrections to the AutoTrac™ guidance system. It utilizes a local, ground-based reference station that transmits the high-accuracy +/- 1 in. corrections to a machine StarFire receiver via RTK Radios. Because of the proximity of the base station to the machine, nearly all satellite drift is eliminated, and the position is highly repeatable. In order for the base-station signal to reach the machine, a direct line of sight is required.
