Make Your RTK-Enabled Skadi Series™ GNSS Receiver Even More Productive
Are you ready to equip your field crews with the ultimate handheld GNSS accessory? If you purchased a Skadi Gold™, Skadi 300™, or Skadi 200™ RTK GNSS receiver from Eos Positioning Systems®, you can upgrade your included Skadi Standard Handle™ to the Skadi Smart Handle™. Taking advantage of very accurate LiDAR and MEMS sensor measurements, the Skadi Smart Handle enables two core features: an Invisible Range Pole™ and Extensible Virtual Range Pole™. First, the Invisible Range Pole is designed to continuously provide you with elevations to the ground while holding your Skadi receiver in your hand. It does this with a gimbal technology that acts like a plumb, so that your receiver always computes its elevation to the ground, regardless of its attitude (angle toward the ground). Next, the innovative Extensible Virtual Range Pole™ extends the reach of your invisible range pole beyond the position you physically occupy. Take advantage of this LiDAR-based, distance-measurement sensor that lets you capture nearby assets on the ground and in trenches without having to climb down into them.
Built with Brains and Brawn
Ergonomically Engineered
The Skadi Smart Handle is designed with a comfortable grip that makes it easy to carry all day long and rugged enough for any field environment.
Invisible Range Pole™
An Invisible Range Pole lets you continuously know and capture your elevation to the ground — without having to carry a physical range pole or enter an antenna height into your data-collection app.
Extensible Virtual Range Pole™
Keep your crews out of the trench! This feature lets you “shoot” nearby assets on the ground and in trenches with RTK-level accuracy — all while standing safely to the side.
