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.

Wildfire Prevention in the Sierra Nevada Region with the Yuba Watershed Institute
Though recent wildfires have sparked new conversations about wildfire management and response, groups like the Yuba Watershed Institute have been monitoring the forests and water resources of the Sierra Nevada region for decades, managing approximately 5,000 acres of land with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and about 7,000 acres in private land partnerships. The goal of the Institute is to work with local communities and land agencies to improve watershed and forestry management through informed practices and public outreach. The goals of the Yuba Watershed Institute are three-fold: Improve the ability of fire suppression agencies like the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection ( CAL FIRE ) and the US Forest Service.

A multi-disciplinary team at Miami University, Ohio, has been studying the environmental change at Acton Lake for over three decades. Using three different NexSens buoys over this time, the team has an incredible archive of data that is helping build a picture of Acton’s past, present, and future. Until recently, a NexSens CB-50 buoy was used alongside other environmental monitoring at Acton Lake. In May 2025, the Miami team deployed a new XB-200 buoy , future-proofing their ongoing monitoring using real-time buoy systems. Acton Lake, a small hypereutrophic reservoir in southwest Ohio, covers 2.4km² and has a maximum depth of about 8m. The dam was built in 1956, and the lake has a large agricultural watershed.

Thousands of US cities pull their drinking water from natural source waters like reservoirs, rivers, and streams, making overall watershed health a key consideration for water providers. In Albany, New York, the Albany Department of Water and Water Supply delivers drinking water to over 100,000 residents as well as monitors and manages the larger drinking water supply watershed. Hannah Doherty, Environmental Specialist at the Albany Department of Water and Water Supply , spends her days working with a small team to monitor the drinking supply and the connected water bodies. Doherty explains, “We’re the first to encounter the water that ends up being the drinking water.
