Juniper Connect

Juniper Connect is a configuration and communication utility for Juniper Systems GNSS receivers and related software, designed to simplify connections between receivers and mobile devices. The app lets users quickly pair with Geode, Archer 4, and Spire receivers and use Juniper RTK services, adjust receiver settings, and monitor live GNSS data such as position, altitude, estimated horizontal error, satellite fixes and correction service. Field technicians and mapping professionals will find Juniper Connect useful because it turns a phone or tablet into a real-time GNSS client, supports network RTK workflows, and integrates with mapping apps for accurate data collection.
