High Value Areas: A New Way to Grow Coverage Where It Matters Most
Dec 8, 2025
Client demand for high precision GNSS correction data is rising globally. From agriculture and automation to mapping and advanced positioning, more companies are turning to real time RTK data as part of their daily operations. As this demand grows, it becomes essential that the network expands in the places where clients need coverage most.
To support this in a focused and effective way, onocoy is introducing High Value Areas.
High Value Areas, or HVAs, are targeted geographic zones where station operators can earn significantly higher rewards when they deploy new stations that meet the required performance thresholds. HVAs help close local coverage gaps quickly and ensure clients receive reliable, high quality GNSS data exactly where their applications depend on it.
This blogpost explains what HVAs are, why they exist, how they work, where they are currently active, and how operators can benefit from them.
Why High Value Areas Were Created
Across the last months, onocoy has been receiving a growing number of client requests for GNSS correction data in very specific locations. These are not random hotspots. They are regions where:
real world commercial usage is high
precision and reliability are critical
but station density is still too low to guarantee the performance clients expect
This combination creates a coverage gap. And because client demand is happening today, not six months from now, the network needs an efficient way to accelerate growth in these areas.
HVAs are the mechanism that enables this.
They allow onocoy to focus incentives in regions where coverage is urgently needed, while rewarding operators who deploy and maintain high quality stations. It is a simple but powerful way to align demand and supply in real time.
What Exactly Is a High Value Area
A High Value Area is a clearly defined zone on the onocoy opportunity map where new qualifying stations receive a temporary reward multiplier. This multiplier is added on top of the normal base reward and streak appreciation.
HVAs are built on a few core principles.
1. Client driven demand
HVAs are not chosen arbitrarily. Each zone reflects verified client needs in a specific region. When enterprises require accurate, stable correction data in an area with limited coverage, HVAs help bridge that gap quickly.
2. Time limited and budget limited
HVAs only run for a predefined period and with a set reward allocation. Once coverage improves or the allocation is used, the HVA concludes. This keeps incentives targeted, meaningful, and efficient.
3. Performance based
The reward multiplier only applies if the station meets minimum quality and availability thresholds. This ensures clients receive reliable data and operators are rewarded for running high performing stations.
4. Stackable with existing rewards
HVAs do not replace the base reward or streak appreciation. They simply add another layer on top. High performing stations benefit the most.
How Much Operators Can Earn
In several active zones, a qualifying station can earn up to:
+500 percent on top of the base reward
This is one of the most substantial reward boosts in the network to date. It reflects the commercial importance of these regions and the value that operators provide by helping close critical coverage gaps.
The multiplier grows day by day as long as the station meets the thresholds. If performance drops, the multiplier decreases accordingly.
How HVAs Work: Step by Step
HVAs are built to be intuitive for operators while offering precise benefits for clients.
1. Deploy a station inside an active HVA
The onocoy explorer shows all HVA boundaries. Any new station placed inside the zone becomes eligible.
2. Meet the performance thresholds
Each HVA has defined requirements for:
signal quality
satellite constellation support
station availability
Only stations meeting these thresholds accrue the reward multiplier.
3. Multiplier grows daily
Each day your station meets the requirements, the multiplier increases. Over time, it reaches the maximum value assigned to the HVA.
4. HVA concludes
Once the campaign period ends or the budget allocation is reached, the HVA closes and rewards return to normal levels.
Where HVAs Are Live Today
HVAs have already launched in multiple regions across the world. These include:
First wave
Riyadh
Jeju Island
Second wave
São Paulo
Zaragoza
Japan rollout
Client demand has surged across Japan, leading to multiple HVAs including:
Tokyo
Osaka
Hiroshima
Additional zones may be activated as client requirements evolve.
Why HVAs Matter for Operators
For station operators, HVAs are one of the strongest earning opportunities in the network. They allow you to:
earn significantly more for the same hardware investment
participate directly in regions with real commercial value
help shape the global coverage map where it matters most
leverage both the base reward and streak appreciation on top of HVA multipliers
If you live in or near one of these regions, or have friends or colleagues who do, this is an especially good moment to deploy.
Why HVAs Matter for Clients
Clients benefit from HVAs because they accelerate the deployment of high quality stations in regions where precise positioning is needed immediately.
This results in:
improved accuracy
lower latency
higher availability
better service performance for mission critical tasks
HVAs help ensure that onocoy continues to deliver enterprise grade correction data globally.

Looking Ahead
HVAs are just one part of a broader effort to scale the onocoy network into a global, high precision infrastructure layer. As client usage grows, more regions will qualify for HVAs, and the reward model will continue to evolve to align coverage with real world demand.
We will announce new HVAs step by step as they go live.
Build where the world needs it most
The network grows stronger when operators and clients move in sync. High Value Areas make that possible by directing incentives to the places where they create the highest impact.
If you operate or plan to deploy in one of the active regions, now is the ideal time to get involved.
