The Spectra Geospatial SP80 is a next generation GNSS receiver that combines decades of GNSS RTK technology with revolutionary new GNSS processing. It also offers the best communications and connectivity capabilities available today including SMS and email alerts and anti-theft protection. The ergonomic design and unlimited operating time make the SP80 an extremely versatile and complete solution.

Unique Z-Blade GNSS-centric
Technology Exclusive Z-Blade processing technology running on a next-generation Spectra Geospatial 240-channel 6G ASIC fully utilizes all 6 GNSS systems: GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, QZSS and SBAS. The unique GNSS-centric capability optimally combines GNSS signals without dependency on any specific GNSS system; allowing operations in GLONASS-only or BeiDou-only mode if needed.

SMS and Email Alerts
SP80 has a unique combination of communication technologies including an integrated 3.5G GSM/UMTS modem, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi connectivity, and optional internal UHF transmit radio. The cellular modem may be used for SMS (text message) and e-mail alerts as well as regular Internet or VRS connectivity. Likewise, SP80 can connect to the Internet from the field using WiFi hotspots, where available.

Anti-Theft Protection
A unique anti-theft technology secures SP80 when installed as a field base station in remote or public places and can detect if the product is moved or stolen. This technology allows the surveyor to lock the device to its position and make it unusable if the device is moved elsewhere. Furthermore, an SMS or e-mail will be sent to the surveyor’s mobile phone or computer, providing the receiver’s current coordinates allowing tracking of its position.

Reliable Design for the Field Use
Dual hot-swappable batteries can be easily exchanged in the field for an interruption-free working day. The impact-resistant glass-fibre reinforced casing ensures that SP80 can handle the toughest outdoor conditions. The patented UHF antenna, set inside the rugged fibreglass rod, extends the range of RTK radio performance. The sunlight-readable display offers instant access to key product information.

The Spectra Geospatial Experience

Spectra Precision Survey Pro or FAST Survey software is specifically tailored for the SP80 GNSS receiver providing easy-to-use, yet powerful GNSS workflows. Spectra Geospatial Survey Office Software provides a complete office suite for post-processing GNSS data and adjusting survey data, as well as exporting the processed results directly back to the field or to engineering design software packages.
