Faster surveying with Leica Geosystems

Leica Geosystems says that the new LS15 tool can be used to complete all the key stages for levelling. The system has a high accuracy of 0.2mm, which can be achieved by aiming at the target via the colour touch display and pressing the measuring button. Key working features include an electronic bubble and tilt checks prior to each measurement and autofocus.

The new tool from Leica Geosystems helps boost surveying efficiency
265 Leica Geosystems says that the new LS15 tool can be used to complete all the key stages for levelling. The system has a high accuracy of 0.2mm, which can be achieved by aiming at the target via the colour touch display and pressing the measuring button.

Key working features include an electronic bubble and tilt checks prior to each measurement and autofocus. These are said to help to reduce fatigue over a shift and help minimise the risk of working errors, ensuring consistently high accuracy of measurement.

The firm says that the LS15 is the only level on the market equipped with a camera and this allows target staffs to be sighted faster. Users locate the staff on the camera touch display and then press the measuring button to record the staff reading and measurement values.

The unit’s USB and Bluetooth interface allow enable fast data transfer, while the Leica Infinity software package can process complex levelling data in the office. Users can combine tables with graphics or cross check key project information in one program window, providing access to all data, results and deliverables.
