265 Leica Geosystems has high hopes for iCON, described as its pioneering portfolio of tailor-made positioning and measuring solutions for construction professionals.

Said to be more than a new product line and a software package, the iCON range consists of four elements.

iCONstruct provides tailor-made hardware and software solutions for positioning and measuring tasks on site.

Meanwhile, iCONtrol provides communication between construction personnel on site while also offering what is said to be a comprehensive portfolio of machine control solutions.

iCONsult is an extensive support network, with clear guidance on intelligent construction aimed at growing contractors businesses.

Finally, iCONnect connects the iCON system to what is said to be a “superior” network using wireless data transfer.
