ProMark 2 GPS Surveying System

Introducing the ProMark2 GPS Surveying System!
A compact, lightweight, and affordable entry-level GPS survey system providing centimeter-level accuracy plus real-time navigation tools for job-site location and point reconnaissance.

The Complete System
The Ashtech® ProMark2™delivers high-quality results at the lowest cost of any entry-level, high-precision GPS survey system. In addition, ProMark2 is the first and only system to deliver a combination of post-processed, centimeter-level static survey capabilities with stand-alone, real-time, 3–5 meter reconnaissance, navigation and mapping capabilities – all in a single system! ProMark2 is a must-have addition to any surveying toolkit and the perfect solution for one-person survey crews.

Survey and Recon Made Easy
With ProMark2, surveyors get the flexibility of selecting either survey or navigation mode. For navigation applications, ProMark2 provides 3–5 meter real-time navigational accuracy, made possible by new technology enabling the use of correction signals from the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), and from the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay System (EGNOS).

The navigation mode assists surveyors in performing two important tasks: job-site location, and point reconnaissance. Simply enter the coordinates and ProMark2 can navigate users to within 3–5 meters of the project site or known point. In addition to land navigation screens, the built-in map database allows users to see their position on highways, waterways, and railways, while displaying bearing, heading, distance, speed, and more*. With the addition of street level maps, users can even navigate to addresses entered into the unit**.

In the survey mode using the new Ashtech ProAntenna™and Ashtech Solutions™ L1 Processor, the ProMark2 survey system very accurately and productively establishes control on new or existing points. Unlike traditional optical surveying equipment, GPS requires no line-of-sight between survey points. This
significantly increases productivity since traverse legs can be longer, and often point to point. Surveyors can use ProMark2 in a two-receiver configuration or, for added productivity, expand the system to include three or more receivers. ProMark2 can also be used with traditional optical survey instruments in cases where the use of GPS alone is not feasible. ProMark2 is the ideal tool for all control point needs!
