<strong>GS5</strong>/<strong>GS5</strong>+ <strong>Leica</strong> <strong>keeps</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>data</strong> flowing…<br />
…no matter what your field.<br />
GPS/GIS Data Collection System:<br />
<strong>GS5</strong>+<br />
<strong>GS5</strong>
<strong>Leica</strong> <strong>GS5</strong>/<strong>GS5</strong>+<br />
Designed to keep accurate <strong>data</strong> flowing, no matter what your field.<br />
The <strong>GS5</strong> class of receiver is specifically designed as an all-in-one turnkey system giving<br />
you instant access to <strong>the</strong> world of GPS. It is ideal for users who need zero hassle, highly<br />
accurate GPS input to field mapping packages, such as ESRI’s ArcPad.<br />
Two receiver types are available: <strong>the</strong> <strong>GS5</strong>, which provides 3-4m autonomous accuracy,<br />
and <strong>the</strong> <strong>GS5</strong>+, which includes a two channel beacon receiver, and offers 1-2m accuracy in<br />
DGPS mode. Both receivers come in <strong>the</strong> same ruggedized, fieldworthy housing designed<br />
to minimize cabling.<br />
Included with both <strong>the</strong> <strong>GS5</strong> and <strong>GS5</strong>+ is everything that you need to get going: batteries,<br />
a handy battery charger and a lightweight antenna pole. All you need to do to get started<br />
is to plug your mapping device into <strong>the</strong> DB9 connector. Absolutely no setup is required<br />
prior to using <strong>the</strong> <strong>GS5</strong> or <strong>GS5</strong>+, it is literally plug-and-work.<br />
Features/Benefits:<br />
• Fast, easy set-up and deployment<br />
• Rugged and durable<br />
Withstands even <strong>the</strong> most extreme environmental conditions.<br />
• Absolutely no configuration required<br />
• Accurate<br />
3-4m GPS, 1-2m DGPS (<strong>GS5</strong>+ only).<br />
• All-in-one antenna<br />
Internal beacon receiver on <strong>the</strong> <strong>GS5</strong>+ means no unwieldy cables. Can support any local coordinate<br />
system on <strong>the</strong> fly.<br />
Exceptionally easy to deploy, <strong>the</strong> <strong>GS5</strong>/<strong>GS5</strong>+ is ideal for staff<br />
who perform <strong>data</strong> collection in addition to o<strong>the</strong>r tasks, such<br />
as line maintenance.<br />
Attaining accuracies of 3-4 meters in GPS only mode, <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>GS5</strong>/<strong>GS5</strong>+ will provide quality <strong>data</strong> wherever you are in<br />
<strong>the</strong> world.<br />
Applications<br />

Keep accurate measurement <strong>data</strong> flowing, no matter what your field.<br />
The ArcPad field mapping software perfectly complements <strong>the</strong> <strong>GS5</strong>/<strong>GS5</strong>+ receivers and<br />
offers users a complete cost-effective GIS mapping/update package. From a <strong>data</strong> exchange<br />
standpoint, <strong>the</strong> ArcPad and <strong>GS5</strong>/<strong>GS5</strong>+ combination fits seamlessly with <strong>the</strong> rest of <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Leica</strong> Geosystems product line-up, as <strong>the</strong>y all use <strong>the</strong> Shapefile as <strong>the</strong> native format.<br />
ArcPad is an easy-to-use package that supports primary <strong>data</strong> acquisition and update<br />
tasks. It is fully compatible with ESRI’s ArcIMS image services that enable users to upload<br />
images from <strong>the</strong> web. Interface to ArcIMS can even be live over a wireless link.<br />
ArcPad supports a large number of projections, including Lat/Lon, UTM, Gauss-Kruger,<br />
Lambert Conformal Conic and Cylindrical equal area to ensure compatibility with<br />
your area.<br />
Features/Benefits:<br />
• Display and collect live GPS <strong>data</strong> on top of your ESRI Shapefile or Raster file<br />
ArcPad supports multiple <strong>data</strong> formats.<br />
• Live interface to <strong>the</strong> web for easy field transfer of <strong>data</strong><br />
• Familiar GIS interface<br />
Including navigation, query and update.<br />
• Seamless interface to ESRI and <strong>Leica</strong> GIS products
