The highest peak

The highest peak of the Americas with 6962 metres
At 6,962 Metres on Aconcagua in January 2001: Climber Gianpetro Verza has just mounted the terrestrial reflector signal to enable the classical terrestrial survey with tacheometres from the valley, and he has fixed on the top the Leica GPS 530 antenna. This configuration allowed at the same time measurement in both technologies with high accuracy. Verza has put the Leica GPS530 terminal, the same equipment as used on Kilimanjaro, before him on the summit.
