No More Leveling Your Survey Range Pole!
Skadi Tilt Compensation™ is the first tilt compensation solution available specifically for the GIS market. With this solution activated, field workers can trust their Skadi Series™ GNSS receiver to rectify errors introduced from tilted angles during data collection with a survey range pole. This extremely accurate feature introduces only about 0.3 millimeters (0.01 inches) of inaccuracy per degree of tilt. It is recommended for crews who use range poles, require centimeter-level (RTK) accuracy, and want to eliminate time spent leveling their poles on each point. Skadi Tilt Compensation is available as an optional upgrade for the Skadi 200™, Skadi 300™, and Skadi Gold™.

Skadi Tilt Compensation introduces only about 0.3 mm (0.01 inches) of accuracy per degree of tilt.
Focus On What Matters
With one less thing to think about, your field crews can finally focus on what matters: their data collection, without having to remember to bubble up!
Which Skadi Series™ GNSS Receivers Support Skadi Tilt Compensation?
Skadi 200™
The dual-frequency Skadi 200™ with SafeRTK® is our entry-level RTK GNSS receiver for those wishing to take advantage of the Skadi Tilt Compensation.
Skadi 300™
The Skadi 300™ is our robust mid-level RTK receiver in the Skadi Series™ and features a triple-frequency GNSS receiver, and many more features for enhanced field productivity.
Skadi Gold™
The Skadi Gold™ is our most robust RTK GNSS receiver in the Skadi Series™. With all the features of the Skadi 300, the Skadi Gold also features support for Galileo HAS.
How Skadi Tilt Compensation Works
Certain Skadi Series™ GNSS receiver models may be activated with Skadi Tilt Compensation. These models include the Skadi 200, Skadi 300, and Skadi Gold. Once Skadi Tilt Compensation is activated, you then must mount your Skadi receiver to a range pole. Next, follow instructions in Eos Tools Pro to initiate the tilt. Keep in mind that for every degree of tilt, there will be an added estimated horizontal inaccuracy of approximately 0.3 mm (0.01 inches). Skadi Tilt Compensation is a lifetime activation associated with your Skadi GNSS receiver’s unique serial number.
How to Activate Skadi Tilt Compensation:
1) Purchase an Activation
Contact Eos to activate Skadi Tilt Compensation on your Skadi 200, Skadi 300, or Skadi Gold GNSS receiver.
2) Mount to a Range Pole
Mount your Skadi Series GNSS receiver to a survey range pole. We recommend the four-section two-meter range pole from Eos.
3) Initiate in Eos Tools Pro
Launch Eos Tools Pro and follow the on-screen instructions to initiate the tilt compensation. After this step, you may collect data without leveling up!
