342 Topcon Positioning Group is introducing a new generation of scanning robotic total stations. The firm’s new the GTL-1000 is a compact scanner integrated with a fully featured robotic total station. The firm says that the system is designed to offer a powerful instrument for single-operator layout and scan on a single set up. Combined with the ClearEdge3D Verity package, it offers effective construction verification workflows.

The instrument includes a complete robotic total station with layout functionality and single operator control. The system allows operators to layout points in challenging construction environments. After processing with MAGNET Collage, the workflow is completed with ClearEdge3D Verity, an advanced software tool that automates construction verification.

The integration of the GTL-1000 and Verity provides a package that suits construction verification using 3D modeling techniques.

    Rebuilding a runway requires special attention to detail to maximise efficiency and safety Airport runways face special challenges with regard to the loads they carry on a daily basis, particularly when aircraft are landing. A modern jet aircraft will typically land at speeds of around 240-260km/h, with a laden 747 weighing as much as 265tonnes at the end of a long flight. The stresses these large aircraft place on runway surfaces are enormous and not just with the massive impact forces exerted during
