(Leica Geosystems Inc.: Atlanta, Georgia) -- The TPS1200+ Total Station introduces Leica’s most precise automatic positioning ever, along with several other accuracy improvements. Users can combine pointing accuracy with the convenience of robotic instruments. In combination with the new positioning camera, the PinPoint reflectorless electronic distance measurer (EDM) range and accuracy has increased twofold. The system also features an improved telescope and high-contrast color display.

PinPoint reflectorless EDM’s can now measure to distances to over 3000 feet, with the assurance of accurate measurements at maximum range.

To improve instrument performance to reflectors, a new complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor camera has been developed. This camera now makes pointing accuracies of 1 sec (ISO 17-123-3) possible. To improve the overall instrument distance accuracy, a new red-diode EDM has been designed to bring the base EDM accuracy to 1mm.
