SURVEYING Upgrade Your Survey GNSS — Now It’s about more than advances in technology — peak times demand peak productivity By Gavin Schrock T rusty legacy rovers have served surveyors well. Under the right conditions and with proper procedures, a 20-year-old rover might still deliver precisions that could match the latest and greatest. We’ve become so used to the limitations of legacy gear that we’ve built our workflows, expectations, and job estimates around them. However, in the past few years, the state of GNSS rovers has experienced a sea change, with gains in productivity, the ability to work in mixed environments, ease of use, and increased speed, repeatability and reliability — these developments have come at an opportune time. 26 GPS WORLD WWW.GPSWORLD.COM | JULY 2022
