ProStar, Emlid partner for cm accuracy for critical infrastructure mapping worldwide

ProStar Holdings, developer of the PointMan Precision Mapping Solutions, and Emlid Tech, European maker of high-precision GNSS equipment, are partnering to bring centimeter-level precision and cost-efficiency to mapping of underground utilities and other critical infrastructure.

The strategic partnership offers ProStar’s PointMan platform, powered by Point One RTK correction services with Emlid’s lightweight and survey-grade GNSS receivers. By combining PointMan’s cloud and mobile precision-mapping solution with Emlid Reach receivers, Emlid’s end-users anywhere in the world have access to an affordable, centimeter-accurate mapping solution.

Emlid offers a range of cost-efficient and lightweight utility mapping equipment. The Emlid Reach RX is a pocket-sized high precision RTK GNSS receiver providing fast setup with no configuration required. For precision mapping trenches in challenging conditions, the Reach RS3 can be used as a base or a rover and provides centimeter-level geopositioning with tilt compensation.

PointMan with Point One RTK corrections provides an easy-to-use mobile mapping solution that uses more than 2,000 base stations communicating with all four major satellite constellations.

“We’re thrilled about this partnership,” said Dmitriy Ershov, Director of Business Development at Emlid. “PointMan mobile mapping software is well-recognized for its versatility and ease of use, and it is exciting to see PointMan continue to evolve, especially with the inclusion of Point One RTK. We are delivering survey-grade accuracy to professionals worldwide in a simple, all-in-one solution.”

Page Tucker, CEO and founder of ProStar, added, “We are strategically aligning with several leading equipment manufacturers to establish a global distribution network. Emlid’s GNSS receivers, combined with PointMan powered by Point One, create a comprehensive and affordable precision mapping solution with unmatched accuracy, coverage, and performance that empowers Emlid’s customers worldwide.”
