GMS-Prism
Long-Term, Background Prism Solution
The GMS-Prism (Geotech Monitoring Station) is designed as a long-term, background monitoring tool. Highly accurate, the system tracks and monitors prisms installed on the area of interest.
It specialises in monitoring open-cut pits and highly vegetated slopes, and detecting and measuring deformation on tailings dams, dumps and cuttings.
Whether choosing the GMS-Prism or its sister-model, the GMS-Dual, both systems are equipped with a range of features that take them well beyond the capabilities of typical robotic total stations. The system has undergone significant software updates, making it even more user-friendly and useful.
The GMS-Prism measures and displays deformation for prisms with high accuracy. Prism Points are highly accurate, can be scanned from long ranges, and are fast to scan. All measurements are processed and ready for analysis at the end of each scan, enabling early detection of movement.
For additional accuracy, the vector movement in 3D is also measured, giving users a better understanding of ground conditions with the benefit of both readings.
No longer relying on basic spreadsheets, all data from the GMS is intuitively visualised in GroundProbe’s patented software, SSR-Viewer. Powerful visualisations include both 3D DTM View and Front View. Users are given access to its entire suite of charting, analysis and alarming tools, gaining the full benefits that our radar customers are accustomed to on top of a range of features developed specifically for the GMS.
All data collected can also be directly imported into data aggregation software, MonitorIQ.
For ultimate flexibility, the GMS-Prism can also be used as a periodic monitoring tool to suit differing site needs. Multiple areas can be scanned at regular intervals using the one device, allowing periodic coverage of typically active areas.
