autosteer.cc joins the onocoy partner program

A new partner brings a ready-to-deploy onocoy-compatible RTK base station to the DACH agricultural market.

autosteer.cc, an Austrian precision agriculture specialist led by Andreas Ortner, has joined the onocoy partner program. Their onocoy RTK Base Station Mosaic-X5 setup is now available as a fully configured, onocoy-compatible station, designed to plug into the network out of the box.

The partnership helps farmers by lowering the barrier to running a professional-grade reference station: hardware, antenna, and accessories arrive as a single integrated package, installation is simple and straightforward, and they benefit from onocoy's quality assurance and rewards that help amortizing the investment faster. For the onocoy network, it adds another hardware on-ramp through a partner who has served farmers all around Europe and beyond with autosteering solution and competent technical support.

This is what the hardware-agnostic model is built to enable. Any manufacturer or integrator who can supply NTRIP-compatible reference hardware to their own customer base can plug those customers into the onocoy network. autosteer.cc is the latest example.

Who autosteer.cc Is

autosteer.cc operates at the intersection of professional GNSS hardware and open-source agricultural software. Founded by Andreas Ortner and based in Austria, the company has built a catalog of more than 80 RTK GNSS receivers, antennas, autosteer systems, and complete steering kits aimed at farmers who want production-grade accuracy without committing to closed proprietary steering platforms.

A significant part of autosteer.cc's identity comes from their work with AgOpenGPS, the open-source precision farming software. autosteer.cc is one of the major distributors and implementation partners for the AgOpenGPS ecosystem in the DACH region, supplying configurable kits, pre-built systems, and technical support for farmers running open-source guidance software on retro-fitted tractors and harvesters.

The tagline, Parallelfahren leicht gemacht! (Making parallel driving easy), reflects the broader operating model: take professional GNSS hardware, combine it with open-source software, and let independent farmers build precision systems without paying for closed-ecosystem subscriptions.

The Autosteer RTK Base Station Mosaic-X5

The new onocoy-compatible Autosteer base station centers on the Septentrio mosaic-X5, a multi-band, multi-constellation GNSS receiver and comes with a calibrated surveying-grade antenna. The full package, priced at €900.90 excluding VAT, includes:

  • Septentrio mosaic-X5 triple-band receiver

  • Ethernet module

  • Weatherproof housing

  • Calibrated triple-band antenna (IP67-rated)

  • 5-metre TNC-SMA cable

  • 5/8" mounting screw

The setup is configured to operate as a reference station out of the box. Operators such as farmers register the station at onocoy, set up NTRIP credentials, and the data starts flowing into the network. Using the same credentials, they retrieve the data from onocoy and feed it to their devices (e.g. tractors), thereby profiting from onocoy's professional quality assurance and enjoying rewards which help amortizing the station faster.

The mosaic-X5 chipset is the technical anchor. It supports all major GNSS constellations (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, NavIC, QZSS) across multiple bands, which gives the resulting correction stream the multi-constellation depth that production-grade RTK applications require.

Why this Partner Profile Matters

autosteer.cc's customer base is unusually well-aligned with the operator profile the onocoy network grows from. Their typical buyer is a farmer or agricultural integrator who has already chosen open-source tooling, is comfortable specifying their own GNSS hardware, and wants centimeter-level precision without the friction or cost of legacy provider contracts.

Those are the same characteristics that make a strong onocoy station operator. The station is set up once, monitored continuously, and contributes validated correction data into a network that supports both the operator's own field work (via the free loopback for up to three of their own devices) and downstream enterprise consumption.

For the onocoy network, the partnership translates directly into more reference station density in precision agriculture, one of the most demand-driven verticals for high-accuracy correction data. The DACH region has a deep base of professional farmers, machinery dealers, and surveyors who already invest in precision systems. autosteer.cc lowers the entry barrier into onocoy for that entire segment.

What Hardware-Agnostic Looks Like in Practice

The architectural decision to keep the onocoy network hardware-agnostic from the start is what makes partnerships like this possible without custom integration work. Any NTRIP-capable reference station setup, from any manufacturer or integrator, can register with onocoy and contribute correction data to the network.

Every hardware partner that joins brings their own customer base, their own technical support channel, and their own product configurations. The result is a steady widening of the on-ramps available to operators: more entry points, more compatible hardware, more reference station density where the data is consumed.

Key Takeaways

  • autosteer.cc has joined the onocoy partner program, adding a ready-to-deploy onocoy-compatible base station to the DACH agricultural market.

  • The package centers on the Septentrio mosaic-X5 triple-band GNSS receiver and a calibrated multi-band antenna, configured to plug into the network out of the box.

  • The partner profile fits the operator base the onocoy network grows from: independent professionals using open-source tooling like AgOpenGPS who want production-grade accuracy without legacy provider contracts.

  • For the onocoy network, the partnership extends reference station density into one of Europe's most demand-rich verticals for high-precision correction data.

  • The architecture stays hardware-agnostic. Any NTRIP-compatible station from any partner can register and contribute.

What This Means for Farmers in Europe

If you've been running a tractor on AgOpenGPS or evaluating a precision farming setup in Austria, Germany, or Switzerland, the autosteer.cc onocoy package is now the most direct path into both. A single integrated purchase, a single set of NTRIP credentials, and your station contributes to a network with active enterprise demand across the region.

For onocoy, every station deployed through this channel is one more node where the data gets used in practice.
