Reporter No. 50, April 2004
Gotthard Base Tunnel +++ World-famous airplane model created with Leica Axyz software +++ Improving cellular coverage in Rio de Janeiro +++ Leica's Universal System 1200 +++ Laser trackers revolutionize industrial measurement procedures at Eurocopter +++ World first in precision paving at Heathrow
Highlights of current issue are:
  • Gotthard Base Tunnel: Tunnel technology for the future
    The Alp Transit Gotthard is an ambi-tious railway construction project, which will incorporate the world's longest railway tunnel of 57 km travelling through the Swiss Alps and under the St. Gotthard massif. Future passenger trains will journey at speeds of up to 250 km/h, adding further to the highly successful European high-speed network and bringing a huge reduction in travelling time.
  • Worldfamous airplane model created with Leica Axyz software
    The worldfamous airplane, Junkers W33, has been measured with extreme 3D precision and modelled using Leica's Axyz software. Leica Axyz is the world's only integrated, intelligent industrial 3D measuring sys-tem, which measures industrial objects, on an electro-optical non contact basis.
  • Improving cellular coverage in Rio de Janeiro
    Telefonica Celular, one of the largest mobile telephone companies in Brazil, contracted IMAGEM, a GIS solutions company, to help them build a GIS database in order to plan and improve their cellular network. The goal was to simulate the actual cellular network coverage of Telefonica Celular in Rio de Janeiro.
  • Dealers' new addiction: The Leica Geosystems Partners' Store
    http://store.leica-geosystems.com is the entry to the Partners' Store, also known as B2B (Business to Business) Store - a new ordering channel established in November 2002 with the aim of making it easier and more valuable for our partners to do business with us.
  • Leica's Universal System 1200
    - More flexibility with new improved ATR
    - Improved range with accuracy
    - New patented precision and reliability Pin-Point R300
    - Improved ergonomics and flexible configurations RX1200
    - Meets all your requirements with the most comprehensive range in the industry
  • Laser trackers revolutionize industrial measurement procedures at Eurocopter
    Laser Trackers are commonly used primarily in the automobile and aerospace in-dustries and are gaining increasingly greater popularity due to their flexibility and high measuring precision. Eurocopter, the world's leading helicopter manufacturer, has improved produc-tion line efficiency by up to 70% in just a few years - thanks to two new state-of-the-art Laser Tracker measurement systems from Leica Geosystems.
  • World first in precision paving at Heathrow
    The demanding tolerances of concrete slab laying required at T5 and Heathrow Airport has called for the use of the high-tech 3-D Machine Guidance Systems of Leica Geosystems installed on Gomaco GHP2800 Slip-Form Pavers.
  • T16 #178277: a life of travel and tacheometry
    Leica Geosystems' worldwide reputation for quality precision instruments stems from the legacy of re-search and development left by forefathers Kern Swiss and WILD Heerbrugg. Most surveyors would have begun their pro-fessional careers using Wild instruments and for many years, a Wild T2 was synonymous with precision work.
