Measure True North Azimuth, Elevation, Location and Distance - all in one device.

Feb. 11, 2009 - PRLog -- Multiwave Sensors Inc. announces today the release of the Azimuth Pointing System (APS). With the integration of four sensing solutions into one package, the APS becomes a powerful measurement tool. Measure true north azimuth with the GPS based compass (non magnetic), elevation angle with the integrated tilt sensor, location with the on board GPS, and distance with the optional TruPulse laser rangefinder.

The APS can be used to align communication antennas (azimuth, elevation), determine drill rig orientation (azimuth, dip), for Mobile/Marine Mapping (latitude, longitude) because it is not affected by the surrounding metal structures like a magnetic compass is. Measure remote geographical positions (latitude, longitude, elevation/height) from one location for asset mapping, 3D positions (X,Y,Z) for a stockpile volume calculation, Missing Line between two remote points (azimuth, distance, vertical angle) or any application that requires a precise location, position or orientation measurement.
