Leica IPAS10 Launched

Attitude System from Leica Geosystems which works with both Leica ADS40 digital imaging and Leica ALS50 airborne LIDAR sensors as well as being available as a standalone system for use with a wide range of sensors. It readily adapts to various Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) types.

Leica IPAS10 eliminates the need for aerial triangulation on a wide range of mapping projects, reduces the need for ground control and facilitates quality control of acquired sensor data. Thanks to the direct georeferencing of airborne sensor data and the providing of various data such as calculated position, velocity, roll, pitch and heading at high rates and accuracies, IPAS10 saves time and costs in the production of airborne sensor data.

The Leica IPAS10 System consists of three components:

• The control unit with embedded GPS board for high dynamic airborne applications and a universal plug-and-play interface for various IMU types
  
• The Controller Software as the operator’s graphical user interface – a interactive and Windows-based software with all main operation information contained in a single window
  
• The IPAS Pro software which blends IMU data with GPS trajectory information to provide robust, post-mission position and orientation data solutions.
