Safer construction sites with Leica Geosystems

April 5, 2024 Read time: 1 min
Leica Geosystems has developed a safety system for onsite use

A new package from Leica Geosystems is said to help boost safety for personnel on construction sites. The PA10 system is intended to highlight the location of construction personnel on working sites to machine operators, as well as alerting workers as to where equipment is in use.

“It’s a personal awareness system,” said Thomas Bonvalot of Leica Geosystems. “Everybody onsite will know where a machine is working and the machine operator will know there is a pedestrian.”

  • Know what lies below with Leica’s DSX 3D utility detection system
    April 11, 2025

    Emergency road repair work needn’t create yet another emergency by hitting unknow utility pipes and other systems.  

    Leica Geosystems says its DSX utility detection solution can quickly be walked over the area where work is about to start and immediately show an excavator operator any dangers that lie below.

    It locates, visualises and map utilities. Unlike any other ground penetrating radar system, the Leica DSX maximises productivity with cutting-edge software that automates data analysis and creates a 3D utility map of the field.
