    EPOS Correction Service Update

    Husqvarna’s EPOS (Exact Positioning Operating System) correction service provides real-time RTK differential corrections to CEORA units via cellular data connection. The service expansion adds regional correction nodes, reducing correction latency and improving availability in areas previously reliant on third-party CORS networks for sub-2cm positioning.

    Fleet Software Update

    Accompanying software update to the CEORA fleet management platform adds regional correction service selection and fallback configuration. Operators can now designate primary and secondary correction sources through the mobile application. No firmware changes to onboard CEORA hardware required for existing installed units to access expanded correction coverage.

    Geographic Scope

    Expansion targets markets in Central Europe, UK, and select North American dealer regions. Nordic markets (established as primary deployment zone since 2022 commercial launch) already operated under full EPOS correction coverage; this update addresses gaps in secondary markets where commercial deployments were limited by correction service availability.

    Operational Impact

    Operators previously using third-party NTRIP correction services can consolidate onto Husqvarna EPOS subscription. RTK signal loss behavior unchanged: CEORA enters hold state without autonomous recovery upon correction signal interruption, requiring manual restart.
