Emesent has launched a new mobile surveying scanner, the GX1, which combines LiDAR, RTK positioning and 360-degree imagery in a single unit for construction and infrastructure surveying.
Emesent describes the GX1 as an “all-in-one” system for capturing and processing survey data. It combines simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM) with real-time kinematic (RTK) georeferencing and panoramic image capture.
The GX1 delivers independently validated global accuracy of 5-10 mm, according to Emesent. The company says this precision reduces the risk that small measurement errors will escalate into larger construction issues later in the project.
Construction teams and survey firms have increased their use of mobile scanning tools in recent years as clients push for…
