As part of Singapore's cadastral survey modernisation initiatives,
the coordinated cadastre was established and SVY21 was gazetted
as the spatial reference system for Singapore.
SiReNT is a new infrastructure replacing SIMRSN, i.e. Singapore
Integrated Multiple Reference Station Network. The primary
objectives of having SiReNT and SIMRSN are similar: to define
Singapore's official spatial reference framework and to support
the gazetted cadastral system in SVY21.
SiReNT comprises five GPS reference stations connected to
a Data Control Centre (DCC) at Government Data Centre (GDC).
The entire set-up is made up of advanced GPS equipment and
sophisticated computer hardware, software, communications
and network.
SiReNT supports a great variety of applications. It provides
data reliability, efficiency and productivity of survey work
for land surveyors with the aid of GPS technology. It also
offers a wide range of GPS data services with various accuracy
levels ranging from metres to centimetres to suit different
applications.
SiReNT has 5 GPS Reference Stations. These GPS Reference Stations
receive satellite signals 24 hours a day and transmit GPS
data continuously to the Data Control Centre (DCC) for storage
and processing. The five reference stations are strategically
located at extreme corners of Singapore Island - Senoko, Nanyang
Technological University (NTU), Keppel, Nanyang Polytechnic
and Loyang, so as to provide an island-wide coverage.
SiReNT offers 3 types of service, namely Post Processing (PP)
On-Demand, Post Processing (PP) Archive, Real Time Kinematic
(RTK) and low accuracy Differential Global Positioning System
(DGPS) to suit different applications.
SiReNT offers a channel for various GPS applications in the
market to further enhance positional accuracies and network
coverage. It can support an infinite list of applications.
You can use SiReNT for:
• cadastral surveying
• engineering surveying
• mapping and geographical information system (GIS)
• topographical survey
• structural monitoring
• hydrographical survey and other maritime applications
• land transportation applications
• homeland security and emergency
• military applications
• location based services (LBS)
• atmospheric monitoring
• aerial photogrammetry and remote sensing
• geodetic survey
• scientific and geodynamic studies
SiReNT is a multi-purpose high precision positioning infrastructure
which provides both Post Process Differential Global Positioning
System (DGPS) services and Real Time DGPS services. The system
supports all types of GPS positioning modes and formats. It
is flexible and ready for integration with minimal configuration.
With SiReNT, users will enjoy:
• High productivity as individually owned reference
stations are no longer required for GPS surveyors
• High reliability
• High precision
