This page lists the equipment which Pilbrow Surveying Limited uses.
Our most recent acquisition is the Gatewing X100 aerial mapping system. Click here to read more about this system.
Our equipment consists of two Leica robotic total stations, two Leica GPS units, two Leica digital levels and two laptops running LISCAD surveying software.
Each survey party is equipped with a GPS, a robotic total station, a digital level and laptop.
This range of gear allows us to select the most appropriate tool for the task at hand. Large open area topos are carried out using GPS. Quarry face surveys can be safely done using the reflectorless capability of the total stations. Roading is setout using the higher level accuracy of the TPS systems. Very high accuracy levelling runs are carried out using the digital levels. The LISCAD software enables calculations to be done without having to return to the office.
Our GPS systems have been setup to allow three rovers to run from one base. This enables us to carry out very fast topographical surveys or deal with three urgent matters on a large site at the same time.
The integration of GPS for setting out and TPS for levelling lets us get large amounts of construction control on the ground very quickly. When one portion of a job has been completed, the setout for the next can be in place and the next stage of the operation underway without costly delays.
Having two survey parties and this range of equipment let us coordinate work to ensure a swift response to your demands.
We currently have two GPS SR530 base stations (one of which can be converted to a rover) along with a SR530 backpack rover and a RX1250 Smart rover. The TPS gear is a TCRP1203 total station with RX1220T remote controller and a TCRA1103 total station with RCS1100 remote controller. Both total stations have reflectorless capability. The digital levels are a SPRINTER 100 & 100M.
Global Survey have installed the antenna and sensor for the fixed GNSS base at our office as part of their Spyder network. They are currently testing this prior to making it available. This will enable our Smart rover to operate independently of a base station.
All our Leica equipment is supplied by Global Survey www.globalsurvey.co.nz.
