Leica Nova MS60 Data Sheet
Overview
The Leica Nova MS60 is presented as the world's first MultiStation, designed to be a fast and versatile instrument for all surveying tasks. It functions as a total station without compromise and offers high-speed scanning capabilities of up to 30,000 points per second. The instrument integrates digital imaging and GNSS connectivity, enabling users to perform point cloud analysis directly in the field, such as flatness analysis or as-built checks using the Inspect Surface app. The AutoHeight feature automatically measures instrument height. Data transfer is facilitated via Leica Exchange to Leica Infinity for management, processing, analysis, and quality checking.
Leica Nova MS60 MultiStation: Master Your Projects with the Ultimate All-Rounder
- Surfaces and volumes in construction and mining: Spoil heaps and stock piles, DTM creation and checking surfaces, material thickness, blast faces, and ground levels.
- Analysis of complex structures and objects within plant, marine and utility projects: Dimensional control, as-built, and record keeping.
- Measuring buildings and structures: Bridge condition/clearance analysis, BIM, and as-built documentation.
- Façade, elevations, and heritage work: Creation of traditional façade deliverables, 3D models, and photographic documentation.
- Traditional topographic surveys for surveying and mapping: Creation of traditional deliverables like 2D maps or 3D models.
- Monitoring measurement and analysis of ground and structures: Real-time or periodic measurement of bridges, dams, buildings, and earth, ice, and snow.
