Did you know?

Geospatial storms—sudden disturbances in the Earth's magnetic field—can affect the accuracy of survey equipment like GNSS receivers and total stations. Even small shifts in magnetic or satellite signals can lead to measurement errors if not accounted for.
Solar flares can disrupt GNSS signals and other survey equipment, potentially causing errors in positioning data.
That’s why our team uses calibrated instruments and rigorous verification methods to ensure your survey data remains precise, no matter the conditions – rain, shine or magnetic storm!
