(Leica Geosystems: Norcross, GA) -- Leica Geosystems firmware 2.0 adds powerful new capabilities to the Leica ScanStation C10, the industry’s popular 3-D laser scanner for as-built and topographic surveys.

Many users are pleased with the productivity and versatility of the fully integrated, cable-free ScanStation C10. New firmware 2.0 adds key features that make it even more productive and versatile:

• New setup functionality allows users take advantage of known survey points and back sighting to reduce the number of target placements and scans needed. Registration of multiple scans to each other is automatic in the field.

• Remote WiFi handheld control via standard Leica CS10 or CS15 controllers provide added field flexibility when on-board display or laptop control are inconvenient or impractical

• “Field photo check” immediately checks images taken by the C10’s embedded camera

• “Check back sight” allows users to check on the spot if the scanner moved during setup
