When you choose Eos, you’re giving yourself the gift of peace of mind. Our GNSS receivers are known industry-wide for being reliable, easy to configure, and — most importantly — accurate.

Our GNSS receivers are lightweight, cross-platform compatible, and easy for any non-mapping professional to pick up and use. They also have all-day battery life and field-replaceable batteries. Moreover, our receivers last in extreme environments, whether that means mud, snow, desert heat, or that one field employee who never learned the meaning of “gentle.”

What Gas Professionals Say About Eos

Damon Nelton

Ellingson Companies now owns a handful of both Arrow 100 and Arrow Gold GNSS receivers, which are used throughout many of our divisions to record location data of mostly buried assets.”

Damon Nelton

GIS Manager, Ellingson Companies / MN, United States

Ellie Chao

“When we are out in the field, whether this is myself or my field technicians, we really need something that does not break or require frequent maintenance. The Arrow receiver is just that device.”

Ellie Chao

Civil Designer and GIS Specialist, Chao & Associates, Inc. / SC, United States

Erin Mara

“Because Arrow receivers pair easily with our iPad and iPhone mobile devices, they are ideal for on-the-go data collection. Our teams use them alongside ArcGIS Survey123 to accurately find and mark repairs, collect location data for inspections, mark foreign line crossings (these are pipes or utilities owned by other companies that cross above or below buried CountryMark pipes), and respond to 811 locate requests.”

GIS Specialist, CountryMark / IN, United States

James Cunningham

“If you have reliable, accurate GPS data, you can have all the confidence in the world.”

James Cunningham

GIS Administrator, Vermont Gas Systems / VT, United States

Mathew Desbiens

“Even five years ago, if you told me that mapping-grade GPS hardware Arrow Gold was going to get us one centimeter accuracy, I wouldn’t have believed you. Because at the time, you would’ve had to get a survey-grade total station hardware to do that. But times have changed! I’m really glad to be getting that accuracy.”

Mathew Desbiens

GIS Manager, Apex Utilities / AB, Canada

Zack Henry

“In my job position, I use a few applications that can all connect to the Arrow Gold. In doing so, I can smoothly transition from one project to the next without additional device setup and with Eos Tools Pro continually running in the background.”
