Grade 3.0 Software  Carlson Software  From ICM, Inc.
Description

Carlson Grade enables heavy equipment operators to know their grade and location without the need for stakes or in severe weather conditions. Accordingly, when work is done at night, when a surveyor may not be available, production can continue with confidence. The significance of this latest program is that you can now see what is going on, on the operators screen from your network, if the rovers are set-up with the network access anywhere in the world through secured sites.

Carlson Grade can even be mounted on a pick-up truck to provide mine foremen and supervisors with real-time position and height inspection capabilities. There is no need for converting site drawings; because, this product recognizes standard dwg files. Combined with Carlson's Productivity Tools, your process and equipment performance can be monitored and analyzed to gain advantage over your competitors.

Carlson Grade is ideal for real-time grading applications, since heavy equipment operators can grade sites without stakes, even in blinding conditions. Instead, they glance at a screen mounted in the cab and respond to cut/fill and position information. This empowers the employee by giving them instant feedback on their design performance and allowing them to achieve the proper grade with the first pass. This eliminates excessive movement and tramming of the machine, which results in less maintenance and cost.
