What are the latest geospatial solutions to benefit local councils?

Upgrading surveying techniques for councils For surveyors working with councils and local governments, integrating robotic total stations and GNSS equipment is part of everyday surveying work. Many local councils throughout Australia complete a wide range of geospatial and surveying works. The requirements for each of these jobs varies widely depending on factors like whether the location is within a city or regional town, but these traditional methods of robotic total stations and GNSS equipment are currently commonplace. But a look at new surveying technology has uncovered new surveying options for councils. Some of the best technology for councils in 2023 is supplementing traditional surveying methods with MAGNET software, survey drones, wearable mobile scanning systems, and wireless monitoring –
