Advanced GNSS capabilities with Topcon

Topcon’s new GNSS tools offers more capabilities for users

Topcon Positioning says that its new HiPer XR offers more capabilities for GNSS duties. The HiPer receivers suit duties in survey applications, including engineering design, and cadastral projects. These versatile tools can also be used for construction site layout/stakeout, grade checking, and material volume calculations. HiPer receivers can also be paired with robotic total stations for Hybrid Positioning

The tools allow users to measure building edges without using an offset, or stretch to otherwise out-of-reach points using Topcon Integrated Levelling Technology (TILT). This novel technology allows the HiPer XR, HR and VR receivers to compensate for rods that are not exactly vertical. The latest version allows for a told of 60°. New features include the unit being calibration-free and the inclusion of a magnetic interference immune IMU system.
