Network Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol (Ntrip) is a
protocol for streaming differential data over internet. It includes:
·
Ntrip Source: Provide differential data and send
to Ntrip Server
·
Ntrip Server: Send data to Ntrip Caster
·
Ntrip Caster: Data management center, receive
and send data
·
Ntrip Client: Download data from Ntrip Caster

Normally the Ntrip Source and Ntrip Server are integrated
into the GNSS receiver, basically we call it [Base/Reference Station]. Ntrip
Caster is normally a software running on the computer. And Ntrip Client is
normally called [Rover].
