GIS Products

Topcon has entered into the GIS arena with dead aim.  The product line up that the Topcon engineers have developed is second to none.  Again Topcon demonstrates their ability to be innovative in developing “World First” designs.

Here is a look into the beginning of our GIS product portfolio.

Hardware

The GMS-2 is a small hand held dual constellation satellite tracking receiver that is packed with features and performance.  The GMS-2 was specifically for the GIS market.  It is small, very light weight, extremely portable and quite user friendly.

What sets the GMS-2 apart for the rest of the field? It might be the fact that the GMS-2 is the only GIS GPS hand held receiver that incorporates an integrated camera & an electronic compass!  Or is it that the GMS-2 is the only GIS receiver in the market place that tracks GPS and GLONASS satellites? Check it out. There is a whole lot more if you look just a little deeper.


The GMS-110 with integrated real time GIS correction services and multifunction antenna will provide sub-meter accuracy with real-time differential correction from OmniSTAR and Navigational Beacons.  The system is also WAAS and EGNOS ready.  The added convenience of wireless Bluetooth connection to your controller makes for and extremely clean package without the annoying cable.

You have the choice of two software packages to run in your system.  For those GIS professionals who are plugged into ESRI ArcPad we have your solution combining ArcPAD and the FC-100 controller.  We also offer TopSURV-GIS which is a simpler more straightforward solution.

Software

TopSURV-GIS is a module of Topcon’s popular TopSURV field survey software.  TopSURV combines basic survey functionality such as stakeout and COGO with GIS feature and attribute data collection.  TopSURV-GIS would be a perfect solution for an existing Topcon customer who is familiar with Topcon software and has GIS requirements.   Data can be exported to shape files of dxg files directly from the handheld unit, or data can be post-processed in Topcon Tools-GIS.  TopSURV-GIS offers the flexibility to work with GPS units or Total Stations.

TopPAD data collection software is based on an OEM version of ESRI’s ArcPad software.  This would be the right choice for a customer who is currently running ESRI software.  ArcPad users would eliminate the learning curve when using TopPAD and the FC-100.  The field files generated by TopPAD will allow the user to directly output in shape file format.  This speeds the process significantly.  TopPAD can store real-time corrected records and also has the capability to log raw data for post processing in Topcon Tools-GIS.

Topcon Tools-GIS allows you to post-process GPS data back in the office on your desktop computer.  It will also allow you to create feature and attribute list, view and edit data, import and export GIS and Cad data.
