Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention recite a method and system for implementing login protection and prevention to a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver. In one embodiment, a geospatial data collection device which is communicatively coupled with a GNSS receiver is authenticated. It is then determined that the geospatial data collection device is authorized to collect data from a geographic region in which the GNSS receiver is located. The geospatial data collection device is then permitted access to a control interface of the GNSS receiver.
