The real-time xyz GPS data from the TopNET live network makes Kingfisher “live” to the on-shore, remote controller operator. The TopNET live network was also chosen for the extensive coverage in Ontario, including many remote locations of the bathymetric surveys. At the time of the Kingfisher build-out for Hunt Surveys, the selected Topcon and Sokkia GNSS hardware was chosen for the ease of integration into the custom Clearpath controller software, and with the bathymetry software by Hypack. Hunt Surveys Inc., an Ontario land surveyor firm, acquired Kingfisher from Clearpath Robotics in 2014, in order to expand into the growing bathymetric survey marketplace. On shore, the survey data is received by the remote control operator in real time with the map and data view screens on a laptop. Kingfisher is loaded with survey-grade sonar, an inertial measurement unit, a remote controller Wi-Fi system, and survey-grade RTK GPS. Real-time, accurate, xyz positioning is crucial to most all aspects of surveying, and none more so than bathymetric surveying utilizing the state-of-the-art, remotely controlled, bathymetric survey boat technology, known as the unmanned surface vessel (USV) “Kingfisher.” Agriculture Smart Implements and Harvest.Venue location will be announced soon.įor more information, please contact Rosemary at (863) 644-8712.
