South Galaxy G4 Rover and Base set Product Review

The South Galaxy G4 Receiver!

South has redesigned the receiver, incorporating a conspicuous yellow bodywork based on user feedback to enhance visibility for surveyors and instruments in diverse environments. Whether on a construction site or in dense forests, the G4 users’ improved visibility promotes safety. In challenging conditions like forests or at night, the receiver’s working status is now more clearly visible from a distance. The SOUTH research team’s advanced technologies, such as the SOUTH algorithm, ensure accurate data correction in harsh environments. The fixed-keep feature allows continuous measurement for a few minutes after losing the fixed solution. Leveraging Beidou PPP and Galileo HAS, it’s technology enables precise point positioning via satellite signals, even in CORS-correction-absent areas.

How to set up IMU Tilt sensor in Microsurvey FieldGenius Android?

South H6 Data Collector

H6 is South’s newest generation professional Android controller. With its Android 8.1 operating system this data collector is lightning fast. The full QWERTY keyboard with separate keys for 26 letters and numbers makes input in the field faster for most surveyors, and meanwhile, benefits them with higher efficiency and improved productivity as well as being able to work well in the rain.

What can you expect with the South H6!

GPS Survey pole

Make it easy to carry by mounting everything on a GPS Survey Pole. Recommended length is over 2 metres to minimise interference to your GNSS receiver and improve performance.

Data collector bracket

This is needed to ensure that your data collector stays firmly in place. It prevents it from being damaged unnecessarily and you don’t have to hold it in your hand all day.

Tripod

Used to set up your base receiver. The 3 legs provide great stability to prevent it from falling or moving.

Tribrach

This is used as a mounting platform for your receiver on your tripod. It also requires an adapter which you can choose in the next step.

Adapter

This is the connection between your tribrach and receiver. You can screw your receiver to the adapter and then place the adapter in your tribrach.
