GNSS Safety Warning
The i83 GNSS receiver tracks and utilizes signals from many space-based satellite navigation systems:
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the US Government which is responsible for the accuracy and
maintenance of the GPS network. Accuracy can also be affected by bad satellite geometry and obstructions including
buildings and tree canopy.
The GLONASS (GLObal NAvigation Satellite System), is a satellite navigation system operated by the Russian Aerospace
Defense Forces.
The Galileo System is the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) that is operated by the European Union (EU) and
European Space Agency (ESA)
BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) (also known as COMPASS or BeiDou-2) is operated by CNSA (China National
Space Administration.)
SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation Services) including WAAS (USA), MSAS (Japan), EGNOS (Europe), QZSS (Asia), and
GAGAN (India) may also be utilized by the OEM engine for carrier-phase corrections, in addition to differential
corrections.
iGage Mapping Corporation is not responsible for, nor warrants the viability of the space segment portion of the GNSS
system. The user is cautioned that they alone are responsible for determining the application of the receiver to the task
at hand.
Any of the GNSS system components can fail at any time. Be prepared for downtime and failures. Do not use the i83
receiver for any critical navigation purpose.

criminal penalties for sanction violations, you should not attempt to interpret export licensing requirements or license
exclusions for travel, or transactions with comprehensively embargoed countries. Before shipping, providing or hand
carrying GNSS devices out of the United States, consult counsel who specializes in ITAR/DOD matters.
