We were invited by The Technical University of Kenya surveying club known as the Geospatial Sciences Students Association (GSSA) as they were celebrating the GIS day on 19th November, 2024.
As a company, we showcased on the technological trends on modern surveying and mapping equipment including GNSS and CORS network and laser scanning technology. We explained the evolution of RTK GNSS base/rover systems to the use of CORS technology with network rover systems and the ease they have brought in data collection in real time. The students were also showed the P6 & P8 GNSS tablets that can be used in GIS data collection, integrated with CORS technology, for high accuracies.
The students and lecturers really appreciated the advancement in technology from use of base/rover setup to the use of CORS technology using a network rover and laser scanning technology working with point cloud data for 3D mapping and analysis.
