A precise line locator is presented that provides precise line location. The locator includes a housing; a wand attached to the housing, the wand including an array of low frequency antennas arranged along the wand, the array of low frequency antennas defining an electromagnetic locate axis of the line locator system; a real-time kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite (GNSS) antenna attached to the housing; a user interface positioned in the housing; and a processing circuit coupled to the array of low frequency antennas, the RTK GNSS antenna, and the user interface, wherein the underground line locator determines locate data of the underground line based on signals from the array of low frequency antennas and determines a precise position of the underground line locator from the RTK GNSS antenna.
