Advanced new Skadi Series GNSS receivers from Eos Positioning Systems
The EOS Skadi Series are a suite of high-accuracy GNSS receivers that dramatically enhance field crews’ productivity, safety, and flexibility through cutting-edge, patented features.
Choose from 4 models, each supporting all four global GNSS constellations, with accuracy and performance matching affordability for various markets and applications.
Unlike the popular Arrow series receivers, the Skadi receiver is device and app agnostic, and comes with a built-in integrated antenna for incredibly flexible field mounting opportunities.
Of the new features, the Skadi Tilt Compensation™ allows a user to capture data without needing to level their survey range pole. With Skadi Tilt Compensation activated on an RTK-enabled Skadi Series receiver, the user can take measurements in hard to access locations or up against buildings or even under canopies.
Tilt Compensation will even rectify errors introduced from tilted range pole angles during data collection.
Next, the Skadi Smart Handle™ introduces two additional features to GIS and GNSS surveying.
Powered by very accurate LiDAR and MEMS sensor measurements, using the Skadi Smart Handle, the operator can activate an Invisible Range Pole™ to provide continuous elevation to the ground measurements below the hand-held Skadi receiver. The receiver always computes accurate elevation to the ground, regardless of the receiver’s attitude (angle toward the ground).
The Invisible Range Pole eliminates the need to carry a physical range pole and the requirement to enter an antenna height in a field data collection app while performing RTK-level accurate field work.
The innovative Extensible Virtual Range Pole™ extends the reach of your invisible range pole beyond the position you physically occupy. Taking advantage of the LiDAR-based, distance-measurement sensor, it lets you capture nearby assets on the ground, inside manholes and in trenches without having to climb down into them.
