Scored against the example yard described above. Your yard will differ; the address check below scores your actual lot.

What is RTK?

Real-time kinematic GPS: a base station antenna corrects satellite positions to a few centimetres. It only works with a clear view of the sky.

Is a boundary wire still a good option under trees?

Yes. Wire mowers navigate by the wire and bump sensors, so trees do not affect them, at the cost of installing the wire.
