Case Study: Harvey’s Plumbing & Heating Meets the iCON GPS 70T Rover

Leica’s iCON GPS 70 Tilt Rover Touches Down in Bozeman, MT

One of our finest in the field, Brandon Pulling, was just out in Bozeman, MT, training and working alongside our friends over at Harvey’s Plumbing & Heating. Tool of choice? The Leica iCON GPS 70T Rover. On a project of this magnitude, with hundreds of points to layout, the iCG 70T proved to be the perfect candidate for significantly cutting down work-time. What do we mean by significant? 

“…once the engineers stepped foot onsite, streamlining began immediately.”

To start, upon site arrival our team was able to dive right into their workflow. With Site Control Points already provided by the surveyor, our team came equipped with an established Location, allowing us to gain site control long before grid lines had been snapped and prior to the arrival of the MEP Contractor.

 Meet one of our finest in the field, Brandon Pulling.

The iCG 70T is self-leveling. Therefore, once the engineers stepped foot onsite, streamlining began immediately. With the opportunity to strictly focus on layout—instead of focusing on terrain and leveling—our specialists provided layout point locations in less than 45 minutes!

 

Self-Leveling Leica iCON GPS 70T Rover at Work in Bozeman, MT

The iCG 70T is self-leveling, granting professionals an opportunity to strictly focus on layout instead of focusing on terrain and leveling.

With the efficiency and reliability of Smartnet Network RTK technology, all the Localization data was instantly stored in Harvey’s CS35 Tablet. Now, if they ever need to return for further point layout, the professionals at Harvey’s can just show up, fire up their CS35, quickly address the task at hand, and be on their way.

Get Closer to the iCG 70T

This revolutionary GPS rover comes about as user friendly as it gets. This piece of equipment requires no calibration, so the moment it comes out of the case, it’s ready for action. With a combination of tilt compensation technology and an extending pole, the iCG 70T delivers efficient results in the most demanding of terrains. With heavy-duty manufacturing, this little warrior can withstand intense weather conditions—from downpours to scolding heat. Furthermore, the iCG 70T is not affected by magnetic interference, stepping it up a notch when it comes to location functionality.
