342 Topcon says that its advanced SiteLink technology provides a comprehensive information technology solution for equipment on construction sites.

The SiteLink product is a wireless communications mapping, data logging, reporting and asset management package that can be used on off-highway equipment. According to Topcon the system can be used with any make, model or type of job site machine, regardless of manufacturer and age.

The system can also pinpoint via GPS any make of equipment on a job site, serving as a built-in theft protection tool.

SiteLink was developed jointly by Topcon and TSD Integrated Controls, a joint venture company of Topcon and 3157 Sauer Danfoss, and because of the communications technology integrated into the package, a user has real-time access to equipment based in remote locations at all times.

Achiel Sturm, TEP product marketing manager for construction products at Topcon Europe said: "The machines can talk to each other as well as to the computers in the office."
