Geodetic Transformations Models- the 'Grid Look Up Table' for OSTN02 The OSTN02 (2002) national ‘definitive transformation’ is an accurate realization (conversion) between OSGB36 National Grid and ETRS89 (1989) coordinates. To achieve the re-projection, a 7 parameter (3 shifts, 3 rotations and a scale change) transformation is required. The OSTN02 transformation is modeled as a 1km grid of varying parameters which...

Importing ASCII data onto Leica survey equipment
Importing ASCII data onto Leica survey equipment All Leica Geosystems instruments are able to absorb ASCII data, such as .txt and .csv files. Because the data is space/comma/colon delimited, the kit can break up the information into the correct columns. The standard format is 5 columns – Pt Id / Easting / Northing / Height / Code Ensure that the... -
This week sees the release of the new SwartWorx field software for TS30 and TM30 instruments.

On the Firmware page the Maintenance End date, is displayed. The new Firmware can be loaded if the date shown is the 01 May 2009 or later. Continue reading → -
Leica GS15 antenna/receiver – All-in-One!
Leica GS15 antenna/receiver – All-in-One! For those projects that require a multi-functional GNSS Rover, the GS15 is the most versatile all-in-one hardware package in the Leica Viva arsenal. There are 4 key features we believe make the GS15 stand out from similar products: The GS15 contains both the antenna hardware and receiver software, allowing it to be set-up as a... -
RH1200/RH15 – 1-Man working Ranges
RH1200/RH15 – 1-Man working Ranges Even in ideal conditions, we would advise a working distance of no greater than 300m; most often 250m on a busy site, where radio-interference may reduce the expected performance figures. This is down to the output power of the radio, the antenna length and its close proximity to the ground.
