Open Interface (BYOD)
Use Geode with any of Juniper Systems' handhelds or with your own iPhone™, iPad™, Windows®, or Android™ device.
All-day Battery Life
The Overtime Technology battery provides enough power for long workdays, while conserving power in extreme temperatures.
Simple to Use
It's "one button simple" design provides intuitive and easy operation.
Compact Size
Small and lightweight, the Geode is easy to pack around all day.
All-In-One Design
The inside of the Geode contains the receiver, antenna, and battery, making it easy to carry around and mount without a mess of wires.
Juniper Rugged™
Designed to withstand harsh environments for consistently reliable performance.
Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS)
The new GNS3H model of the Geode family adds support for the Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) to provide free, worldwide 20cm accurate positioning. The Galileo HAS is currently in Initial Phase, meaning that the performance and time standards are currently relaxed so that the EUSPA (European Union Agency for Space Programme) can complete their design and testing to complete the Final Phase of operations with better than 20cm performance in under 5 minutes convergence time (see excluded areas in map below). Simply apply a multi-frequency upgrade to any GNS3H receiver and you have instant access to 20cm real-time location accuracy without any additional subscriptions, downloads or software. The Galileo High Accuracy Service provides precise corrections in the Galileo E6B data signal so that Galileo and GPS signals can achieve real time positioning performance of better than 20cm in nominal conditions. With Galileo HAS, Sub-meter becomes Sub-foot as the new standard for free and open global GNSS positioning.

In The News
Spring 2025 Environmental Monitor Available Now
In the Spring 2025 edition of the Environmental Monitor, we highlight partnerships across the world and the importance of collaboration between government agencies, universities, environmental groups, local communities, and other stakeholders. 
 
From great white shark research in Cape Cod to monitoring fisheries in Lake Erie, this latest edition underscores partnerships that connect stakeholders in a watershed through environmental data. 
 
With an emphasis on data sharing, a combination of real-time and discrete sampling keeps the public and partners informed of environmental conditions. Our writers also sought out science professionals dedicated to working with peers within and outside of the environmental sector.

The mariculture industry in the Gulf of Alaska has been steadily growing in recent years, guided by ongoing research to help refine farm location and cultivation practices. A subset of aquaculture, mariculture focuses on rearing organisms in the open ocean. 
 
In Alaska, finfish farming is illegal, so most farms cultivate kelp, oysters, or a combination of the two. These small, locally operated farms started popping up in the Gulf of Alaska in the early 1990s, when shellfish farming first became legal. Kelp farming did not begin to catch on in the state until 2016. 
 
Many of the coastal areas that have grown interested in mariculture are historically commercial fishing communities.

Providing clean, safe, and reliable drinking water for the 1.6 million people in the greater Seattle area is a top priority for Seattle Public Utilities (SPU). With limited water supplies, SPU dedicates considerable resources to maintain its watersheds and mountain reservoirs. 
 
About 70 percent of Seattle Water comes from the Cedar River Municipal Watershed , and the other 30 percent comes from the South Fork Tolt River Watershed .
