Eos Positioning Systems April 2025 Newsletter - Habitat Restoration using GNSS, GalHAS and Laser Rangefinders with AmeriCorps in Great Smoky Mountains National Park

April 2025 Newsletter: Americorps interns take Arrow and GalHAS to the Smoky Mountains

Feature Story

National Park Service (NPS) GIS interns are helping re-establish the historic boundaries of Andrews Bald in the Great Smoky Mountains thanks to Eos Laser Mapping for ArcGIS and Galileo HAS with an Arrow Gold+ receiver and laser rangefinders

/// Habitat Restoration using GNSS, GalHAS, and Laser Rangefinders in Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Great Smoky Mountains National Park is renowned for its natural beauty, but the dense canopy that covers the park poses significant challenges for field data collection. Learn how a group of forward-thinking Americorps volunteers used the Eos Arrow Gold+ GNSS receiver, GalHAS GNSS corrections, and laser rangefinders to overcome the challenges of mapping in dense canopy. Their work supports efforts to sustain rare, ecologically important features known as Appalachian Grassy Balds.

Where Are They Now - Eos Positioning Systems Arrow GNSS Users CountryMark use high-accuracy for pipeline mapping

CountryMark

In 2019, CountryMark wanted to minimize back-and-forth trips to the field and office. They wanted to empower field crews to focus on tasks — instead of technology. What originally started as a trial of two Arrow 100s has expanded to the daily use of 16 Arrow 100s and one Arrow Gold. What good work is this pipeline and petroleum company up now?
