Leica Geosystems is revolutionizing underground mapping work with Getac
Background
The location and mapping of underground supply networks is a tedious task, once only done by experts with significant technical know-how.
Challenge
Detection and mapping of underground supply lines takes place beneath all types of terrain, including asphalt, rocky subsoil, grass, or sand, and it once could only be done by experts.
Up to now, the location of underground supply networks could only be carried out by experienced experts. With the DSX positioning system, Leica Geosystems has developed a solution that enables also less experienced users to locate underground supply lines. Since this work has to be carried out on all kinds of terrain and under all kinds of climatic conditions, a robust tablet was needed for the use of the DSX application.
Benefits
The Getac F110 greatly simplifies the process of visualizing, interpreting, and transmitting traditional ground radar data.
Due to its durability, the fully robust F110 Tablet is particularly suitable for use on uneven terrain and under adverse climatic conditions. It is drop-resistant and insensitive to shocks, dirt and moisture. Even temperatures from -21 to +60 °C do not affect the F110’s functions in any way. This allows Leica to ensure that DSX users can locate the positions of supply lines of all types and under all circumstances, and so that, for example, safety risks can be avoided during excavation work.
We sell our solutions worldwide, so we needed tablets that can cope with any type of climate and subsurface. In addition, they must be absolutely resistant and withstand rough handling, including impacts and falls.
