Datum Tech Solutions trainer working with a crew on a Leica iCON robotic total station
TOTAL STATION TRAINING

Total Station Training

A robotic total station will not teach you where to set up or how to check a resection before it costs you a day. We train your crew one-on-one, on your site, on the instrument you already own.

What a session covers

Built around the work your crew does this month, not a syllabus.

Setting out from the model

Layout with a robotic total station: control, resections, backsights, and the checks that catch a bad setup in the first ten minutes rather than at the end of the day.

When the model and the slab disagree

What to trust, what to re-shoot, and how to record the difference so the office can act on it. This is the situation that generates most of the support calls.

iCON Field, end to end

Getting the model out of the office, onto the instrument, and the as-built data back again, without a translation step in the middle.

GPS and GNSS alongside

Rover setup, correction sources, coordinate systems, and knowing when GNSS is the wrong tool for the tolerance you are working to.

Reality capture, if you run both

Scanning method rather than button pressing: how many setups, where to put them, and checking coverage before you leave site.

Something specific?

Tell us the instrument and what your crew keeps getting stuck on. That is what the session gets built around.

How it works

01

One-on-one, not a classroom

Personalized, so your crew grasps the technique on the work they actually do rather than on a demo site.

02

On your site, on your instrument

Using your control and your model. What is learned transfers, because nothing has to be translated afterward.

03

A named support team afterward

For the urgent request, the last minute question, and the thing that only comes up on week three.

04

Kept current

Firmware, software and method change. We keep clients current rather than leaving them on the version they were trained on.

Why this is the part people skip

Modern instruments are approachable. Most crews are productive on an iCON robot inside a day, and that is exactly what makes training easy to skip.

What training changes is method. How many setups, where to place them, how to tie into control, how to check the data before leaving site. That is where the difference between usable and unusable data lives, and it is not in the manual.

If your first project on the instrument matters, half a day is cheap insurance.

Leica Geosystems Authorized Service and Distribution Partner

We are an authorized Leica Geosystems Service and Distribution Partner. We sell, rent, service and train on everything we supply, from our own calibration center in Boise.

We travel to you

All 50 states. We can usually work around a live job rather than pulling a crew off one. Tell us the instrument, the crew size and where you are.

Request training

Tell us what you are working with and what you need your crew to be able to do. The more you can answer here, the fewer questions we have to ask before we can get you a date and a price.

City and state. We train on site, at your location, so this drives scheduling.
Which equipment is the training for? Tick everything that applies. We train on your own instruments, so this tells us what to prepare for.
If the whole crew is new to the instrument, one day is a crash course rather than a full grounding.
We train on your real project, not a demo site, so the files decide whether a date can be set. This is the single most common reason a session has to be moved.
Which of these do you have? Tick anything that exists today, even in draft.
Not sure what these are? These two cover it, and they are what we would send you anyway: iCON File Preparation and iCON Project Setup Notes.
The more specific the better. A real job you need to run, a workflow that is not clicking, software that is not talking to the instrument. This is the question that saves the most back and forth.

We reply within one business day. Prefer to talk it through? Call 888-232-8664.
