GEDO IMS SYSTEM FEATURES
Trimble GEDO Profiler
The Trimble GEDO Profiler is a laser distance measurement unit with angle encoder for fast and accurate measurements of objects along the track. It can be used to check the track position at known points, and to measure distances to platforms and other fixed structures. The measurement can be purely relative to the current track position or in an absolute coordinate system.
It is also possible to check the clearance and to capture topo points along the track.
In the Trimble GEDO IMS system, the Trimble GEDO Profiler is used to reference the track trajectory using absolute coordinates or purely relative reference points.
Trimble GEDO Scan
The combination of Trimble GEDO Scan and Trimble GEDO IMS provides a highly productive survey and mapping system for assets close to the track. It produces a dense 3D point cloud with an absolute reference.
Out of the point cloud asset data information can be collected and clearance checks can be processed. As well the data can be used as an as-built survey before, during and after construction within a BIM project.
Trimble GEDO GNSS
Combining the Trimble GEDO IMS system with Trimble GNSS technology enables track survey without reference points based on a given GNSS reference system. Thereby collected data can be used to create a new or modified track design. Reference points can be established and measured during the survey run.
This allows the usage of the system for further survey work during the re-construction phase.
