Topcon Introduces Advanced Survey Station
Topcon IS robotic survey station.
Topcon Positioning Systems’ lineup of
robotic total stations now includes the IS
model, latest in the product line that
Topcon introduced in 2005 with its GPT-
7000i total station. The IS offers advanced
3-D modeling capabilities that allow
for 3-D model creations with image integration
and volume measurements. Three distinct
features unique to the marketplace,
according to Topcon, include: Intelligent-
Scan, which automatically recognizes distinctive
features within the image field of
view; ImageDrive, which allows an operator
to visually operate from the image display;
Connecting to the IS via its IP address, an
operator can take complete control from a
personal computer at a remote location or
its WiFi-equipped FC-2200 field controller—
enabling short- or long-term monitoring
and operation from hazardous job
site locations, or simply working from the
comfort of a vehicle or job site trailer in
harsh weather conditions. The Topcon IS
robotic total station provides reflectorless
measurement up to 2,000 m (more than
6,500 ft or 1.2 miles). Additional features
also include: Bluetooth technology; Image-
Master software providing precise image
and scan control; intelligent scan feature
recognition; X-TRAC Quick-Lock tracking
technology; and integrated interference-free
2.4 GHz radio.
