Leica Geosystems Introduces Viva GS14 GNSS Receiver

Leica Viva SmartStation GS14

Leica Geosystems has announced the release of the Leica Viva GS14 GNSS receiver. The GS14 is designed to be the best-price performance GNSS receiver in its class. The built-in GSM and UHF radio, internal memory and IP68 protection fully equips a user for nearly any measuring task, providing a reliable, revenue-generating production unit, the company said.

When combined with the Leica Viva GNSS RTK, the GS14 creates a tightly integrated GNSS system ensuring the highest degree of flexibility, quality and reliability, Leica Geosystems said.

The compact Leica Viva GS14 offers comfort in the field and a variety of setups and operating options, the company said. The Viva GS14 can be used as a light-weight rover and as a base station. The Leica Viva GS14 further enhances the Leica Viva series by offering a complete range of GNSS and total station solutions combining precision with maximum versatility. Users gain speed and efficiency by reducing the number of setups and control points with the unique SmartStation, and the versatile SmartPole allows instant switching between GNSS and TPS with a simple icon tap, Leica Geosystems said. The system exceeds specifications going beyond industrial standards. Moreover, the temperature range from -40°C to +65 °C ensures a flawless performance even in most challenging working environments.

With  Leica Geosystems’ SmartTrack and SmartCheck technology integrated, the Leica Viva GS14 tracks signals with the highest quality and constantly evaluates and verifies the RTK solution to ensure the most reliable RTK positions. Together with the innovative Leica xRTK technology, positions are delivered in difficult GNSS environments. The Leica Viva GS14 also is ready for future satellite signals.

The Leica Viva GS14 is available this month. Ordering information can be obtained from authorized Leica Geosystems representative.
