Advanced Navigation

Advanced Navigation is an Australian navigation and robotics manufacturer (Sydney, NSW) building inertial navigation systems (INS), IMU/AHRS, GNSS compasses, acoustic/USBL subsea positioning and underwater robotics for air, land, sea and space — the Boreas FOG and Certus MEMS GNSS/INS families, Motus, GNSS Compass, Subsonus USBL, Subsonus Tag and the Hydrus micro-AUV, plus the Chimera laser velocity sensor and Air Data Unit aiding accessories. Its devices speak the proprietary binary Advanced Navigation Packet Protocol (ANPP), documented in per-product reference manuals and implemented by first-party C SDKs, a Python SDK on PyPI and ROS 1 / ROS 2 drivers. Its one public web API is the Kinematica API — an HTTP/JSON interface to the Kinematica cloud GNSS/INS post-processing (PPK) service, documented as a versioned PDF reference manual rather than a machine-readable specification.

Advanced Navigation publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Navigation, Inertial Navigation, GNSS, and Positioning.

Advanced Navigation’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, support, engineering blog, pricing, signup flow, authentication, and 19 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/advancednavigation: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  description: HTTP/JSON API for Advanced Navigation's Kinematica cloud GNSS/INS post-processing kinematic (PPK) service.
    Eleven documented calls let a customer application create a data set, upload primary and secondary rover files (.anpp,
    .o, .d, .o.Z, .d.Z), supply or auto-select base-station and ephemeris files, edit the processing configuration, queue
    processing, poll status and logs, list files and download post-processed results. Authenticated with a per-account API
    key passed as a request parameter; replies are JSON. API version v1.2; the API tier is sold as pay-as-you-go processing
    minutes.
