GEODE CONNECT is a configuration and communication utility for the GEODE GNSS RECEIVER. It provides the ability to establish communications to the Geode Real-Time Sub-meter GPS/GNSS Receiver, change receiver settings, and displays position, altitude, estimated horizontal error, differential status fix info, speed, heading, satellites in fix and PDOP. Using the Configure Receiver settings menu, select SBAS, Atlas® L-Band, or NTRIP-delivered RTK Float corrections for selectable accuracy to fit your job. The Skyplot screen shows satellites in use for the various supported constellations and their distribution in the sky. A terminal screen is included to allow users a “deep dive” into the actual data output from the receiver, and direct command access. The Receiver Configuration menu provides the ability to control a wide range of receiver settings to suit your work environment. REAL-TIME SCALABLE ACCURACY GNSS RECEIVER Looking for a simple yet precise GNSS solution at an affordable price? With the Geode, you can easily collect real-time, sub-meter, sub-foot or decimeter accurate GNSS data without the huge price tag or complexity of other precision receivers. Designed with versatility in mind, the Geode works with a wide range of devices to fit your needs exactly, and is especially useful for bring-your-own-device workplaces. Take the Geode with you mounted on a pole, in a pack, or held in your hand to collect real-time precise GNSS data in harsh environments, using almost any handheld device.

Profometer

Read full description

Profometer - Intelligent software for durability inspections of concrete structures. Used together with the most compact, versatile and accurate cover meter, the Profometer PM8000 Pro, PM8000 & PM8000 Lite for mapping concrete cover and estimating rebar diameters. Used with the fastest and most flexible corrosion half-cell potential meter, the Profometer PM8500 for mapping out corrosion potentials. The Profometer app can be connected to two different sensors, and its mission is simple: - PM8000 Pro, PM8000 & PM8000 Lite: Scan reinforced concrete in situ for quality control, conformance with structural drawings and assessment of structural durability by mapping concrete cover and rebar diameter. - PM8500: Measure the corrosion potential using half-cell technology, providing a clear overview of the areas that have a high probability of being corroded, for further analysis and definition of a repair project. The Profometer app is the perfect software solution for inspection services, structural & civil engineering firms and contractors working on durability, corrosion and structural resistance assessment of existing reinforced concrete structures, or quality control for new constructions. The seamless integrated workflows bring you unprecedented productivity in the field and can save you countless office hours. The intuitive software produces all valuable deliverables such as: - PM8000 Pro, PM8000 & PM8000 Lite: spot measurement check, concrete cover and rebar diameter maps, signal strength views, heat maps including AR (augmented reality), standard and advanced statistics based on DBV (Deutscher Beton- und Bautechnik-Verein) criteria, elevating your assessments to the next level. - PM8500: corrosion potential gradient view, cumulative frequency and distribution statistics views, corrosion likelihood chipping map. Enrich your measurements with geolocation, tags, photos, voice memos and comments in the Logbook to provide a full picture of the contextual data. With only one click, you can collaborate and share data from anywhere and anytime among all stakeholders - in raw data, CSV, HTML and DXF format. All your data is accessible on Screening Eagle Workspace with any web browser. All of this magic starts by connecting with one of the two revolutionary and best-in-class sensors: - Profometer PM8000 Pro, PM8000 & PM8000 Lite cover meters including rebar diameter dimensioning functionality. You gain access to unmatched measurement accuracy thanks to unique data interpolation, augmented auto rebar spacing detection and intelligent neighbouring rebar correction. - Profometer PM8500 corrosion half-cell potential meter, the most accurate and productive sensor in the market. You can use our rod electrode for mapping corrosion in small concrete elements, and our one-wheel or four-wheel electrode, to map out corrosion in bigger areas such as parking garages or concrete bridges. Leverage the real-time software for immediate visualization of corrosion likelihood analysis, connected to the most compact sensor and the unique wheel electrodes for the fastest area scanning. These ultra-lightweight and rugged Swiss made products in combination with the outstanding Profometer app deliver a reliable basis for identifying the risky and corroded areas for further investigation and repair. The Profometer PM8000 Pro, PM8000, PM8000 Lite and PM8500 are meant for quality control, durability and structural assessment. And that is why it is the perfect complement to Proceq GPR (GP8800, GP8000, GP8100) concrete imaging and Pundit Ultrasonic (PD8050, PI8000) concrete thickness, quality & defect inspection portfolio by Screening Eagle Technologies. Download the free app now and explore the state-of-the-art analysis software for concrete cover, diameter estimation, and corrosion mapping, with the included demo files.
