Very simple but many method to do it :

1) Add software to rc.local Run : sed -i -e '$i \cd /home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/ && RTKBASE\n' rc.local

2) Use system root LXDE autostart : Run : sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart Add this :

@/home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/
@RTKBASE

3) Use user LXDE autostart : Run : nano ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart Add this :

@/home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/
@RTKBASE

4) Add desktop entry to user config : Run : nano ~/.config/autostart/rtkbase Copy paste entry below :

[Desktop Entry]
Name=RTKBASE
Type=Application
Comment=RTKLIB Touchscreen : graphic interface to use GNSS.
Exec=/home/pi/RTKLIB_Touchscreen_GUI/RTKBASE/RTKBASE

Make it executable : chmod +x ~/.config/autostart/rtkbase

Best way for me is option 4 because I do not use LXDE
