Leica Geosystems introduced its latest solution for utility and excavation professionals, the Leica DD Smart utility locator series, signal transmitters and DX Shield software. The utility locator series uses digital signal processing to automatically detect utilities and underground assets deeper, faster and more accurately. New technology from DX Shield software records information to manage site activities and map buried utilities. The solution allows users to collect, transfer and access data remotely to a hosted service for multiple users, across multiple sites. The DD230/220 Smart utility locators use on-board locate alerts, video support and automatic locate process to reduce time scanning utilities and to minimise utility damage. The locators are also scalable and designed with the latest Bluetooth technology, providing a wire-free connection to field controllers and mobile phone devices. DX Shield software solution allows users to gain a better understanding of task performance and site complexities with reports, activity visualisation, and locator fleet overview. A cloud-hosted platform transfers data directly to the field to provide a convenient view of the product use, reducing utility strikes and saving direct repair costs and project downtime.
