GNSS · Rover and base

Spherefix SP30

Four ways to get the shot: RTK on the pole, a tilted pole where you cannot plumb it, a laser on what you cannot stand on, and AR stakeout on the controller screen. Set up and supported by the crew that carries one on its own jobs.

How it takes a point

Four ways to get the shot

One receiver on the pole. The two cameras and the laser are for the shots that used to mean a second trip or an offset.

01

RTK fix

1408 channels · 20 Hz

GPS, GLONASS, BDS, Galileo, QZSS, SBAS and NavIC, on every band the receiver tracks. Corrections over 4G from an NTRIP service, or over the built-in 5 W LoRa radio from your own base.

02

Tilted pole

< 2 cm · pole to 60°

The inertial module corrects for the angle of the pole, so you stop chasing the bubble on every shot. Corners, the base of a wall, the back of a curb: hold the tip on the point, lean the pole out of the way, take the shot.

03

Laser

≤ 2.5 cm · within 5 m

A camera aims a laser at the point you cannot stand on: a footing under water, the lip of a live manhole, the far side of a trench. The receiver reads the range and works out the coordinate from where the pole is.

04

AR stakeout

1080p · 70° view

The wide camera puts the design point onto a live picture of the ground in the controller. You walk to the mark on the screen instead of reading north and east offsets.
