# NTRIP Clients & Field Software: RTK Setup Guides

## How it Works

Understanding the data flow helps you troubleshoot connections in seconds.

1. **Connect:** Your app connects to the RTKdata Caster (Server) via Internet.
2. **Locate:** The app sends your approximate position via **NMEA GGA** message.
3. **Stream:** The Caster calculates corrections for that specific location and streams them back (RTCM).
4. **Fix:** Your Rover calculates the exact position: `Autonomous` → `Float` → `FIX` (✅).
