A brief demonstration and tutorial about the Geomax Zoom90 robotic total station and its' easy-to-use X-Pad software. Let us know what videos you want in future - how to use a total station?
in 30years business ... the fastest instruments-demo-guy i ever see running --- greetz from a german collegue in swiss instrumentes-business.. (check my battery site in web)
Thanks for the video, I just fell in love with this equipment, it's time to say bye to Chinese equipment, and Leica... Tell me more about the geomax cos am a young surveyor want to buy a good long lasting precision equipment
@Abel Parker It's usually used when talking about using both GNSS and total station so you have a hybrid system, though maybe he's using it in a different context - and SurvPC is a Carlson software I think (we tend to sell with X-Pad)
Yeah, you'll need the Surfaces and volumes module which isn't in the basic package but DTMs are no problem, and nice to visualise in the CAD viewer. You can also stake out surfaces directly.
Love the look of this instrument! but hardly heard of Geomax. where can I find out more info? specs? software it uses? compatibility with desktop software?
Best place for info on the instrument is here: geomax-positioning.com/products/total-stations/zoom90-series and you can find your local distributor here: geomax-positioning.com/contact-us/find-a-distributor
And in terms of software, it's an open platform so you can run a variety of things including X-Pad, Field Genius and Carlson, but we generally recommend X-Pad. You can upload in several desktop-friendly formats, but X-Pad has its own desktop version too, called X-Pad fusion.
I have the total station and x pad and paid for the software for the xpad but never received the software, should i reach out to geomax to resend that link?
Good video, I like the jokes. Where can I get one of those brackets? I use a Panasonic fz-m1 like that one on a bracket meant for a Juniper Mesa 2. That one looks like it might be more secure.
I am on the fence about buying one of these or the Leica TS13. I already have a zenith 35 base and rover and a Leica gs14 base and rover. I would choose the Leica 100% of the time over the geomax. Does anybody have any experience comparing the zoom90 to day the TS13 ?
I can't really talk about the TS13, but why not do a free trial of the Zoom90 to see if you like it? You can book a free trial here - www.workswhenyoudo.com/ or directly though Surveytech if you're based in London/ South East. If you've already got a Zenith35, it'll work really nicely if you ever wanted to mount that on the prism and toggle between the two using X-Pole...
