Leica GS18 T – The world’s fastest GNSS RTK rover

Resistant to magnetic disturbances and calibration-free – no need to level

The Leica GS18 T is the world’s fastest and simplest-to-use GNSS smart antenna and RTK rover. Measure any point quicker and easier without needing to hold the pole vertical.

This latest technology and innovation combine GNSS and IMUs (inertial measurement units) to be the first true tilt compensation solution that is immune to magnetic disturbances and is calibration-free.

 

Focus on your task at hand and save time as you no longer need to watch and level the bubble. Continuous, accurate positioning when in close proximity to metallic objects – measure where others couldn’t before. The GS18 T works directly out of the box without any calibration procedure.

Description

Engaging software

The Leica GS18 T RTK rover combines with the engaging Leica Captivate software for a powerful and immersive experience. Through the ease of touch, management of complicated data is made surprisingly enjoyable and actionable. Leica Captivate covers industries and applications with barely more than a simple swipe, regardless of whether you work with GNSS, total stations or both.

Infinite possibilities

While Leica Captivate captures and models data in the field, Leica Infinity software processes the data back in the office. An efficient data transfer guarantees the project stays on track. Captivate and Infinity works together to join prior survey data and edit projects quicker and more effectively.
With built-in quality assurance, this GNSS RTK rover records how the pole was levelled during the measurement and records the values, confirming measurement traceability and comprehensive quality reporting.

Powerful handheld devices

Take your complete office on the go when you learn the power to overcome any environment from the palm of your hand. The Leica CS20 controller and Leica CS35 tablet deliver the ultimate in control and accessibility with total mobility. Touchscreen technology allows for easy and fast data processing while an impressive 3D view transforms your GNSS experience.
