Key upgrades are now available for the 199 Delta Solutions deformation monitoring system from the 342 Topcon Positioning Group. The improvements include software management upgrades and advanced modular configurations. The Delta Solutions package now benefits from new configuration choices employing either robotic total stations or GNSS with the ability to add leveling sensors. An additional module is available to enable all three sensor types to be combined into a single deformation monitoring system. Whatever the Topcon sensor combination, these can be computed within one combined network adjustment solution.


Delta Watch also features a new monitoring system diagnostics module designed to allow operators to check the performance and health of the internal monitoring system hardware for operational troubleshooting and the planning of any maintenance requirements. Operators now also have a choice of using either metric or US survey units as the default values in the software.
