7121 Hexagon continues to develop its software portfolio with the acquisition of Listech, which will compliment its array of construction solutions and particularly those of its 265 Leica Geosystems subsidiary. 7122 Listech offers software solutions that aid with data processing and help streamline workflows in land management, construction and engineering projects. The LISCAD portfolio offers a comprehensive set of modules that interface with all major surveying, engineering and CAD systems. The array gives on-site personnel access to sophisticated tools for use in real-time surveying and stakeout. This technology can help optimise measuring, mapping, and recording the physical environment, while reducing the risk of mistakes. The company claims it provides an important tool that ensures proven practices can be combined with high-tech capabilities in an array of applications from road construction to land surveying services.
Leica Geosystems is to expand its operations following a move by its parent, Hexagon. Under the terms of this deal, Hexagon will acquire all outstanding shares of Navgeocom, which is the largest Russian distributor for Leica Geosystems. The acquisition marks another step in Hexagon's global distribution strategy, which aims to establish a strong direct presence in key markets. This will help Hexagon’s presence in Russia, which is benefiting from significant expenditure on infrastructure development at prese
Leica Geosystems has unveiled its new powerful Leica iCON 3D machine control system for wheeled loaders. The Swiss firm says the system allows users to complete their earthworks jobs faster and correctly the first time. It is also said to precisely control material cut and fill, saving a lot of time and money by reducing rework and over-excavation, while also making grading operations with wheeled loaders more efficient. Grade checking, says Leica, can be eliminated, further enhancing productivity, efficien
Leica Geosystems has launched the latest editions to the Digisystem product range: the Leica Digicat xf-Series. With Leica Geosystems’ new xf-Series cable locators and transmitters, users are said to be able to accurately detect and trace utilities faster and over a greater distance. The Leica Digicat xf-Series is said by the Swiss firm to have been specifically designed with long distance tracing in mind. The ability to trace transmitter frequencies of 512Hz and 640Hz provides users with a greater tracing r
