Brand: Meridian
SKU: MET-GPS24
Price: 2490.00 USD
Availability: InStock

The Meridian M5 Plus delivers enterprise-grade positioning accuracy with calibration-free tilt compensation, designed for surveyors and GIS professionals who demand reliable results in challenging field conditions.

Multi-Constellation Precision

Advanced 1408-channel receiver tracks GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, QZSS, IRNSS, and L-Band signals simultaneously for superior accuracy and reliability. This comprehensive constellation support ensures consistent performance even in urban canyons and under heavy canopy cover where single-constellation systems struggle.

Calibration-Free Workflow

The integrated 120° IMU tilt compensation eliminates the need for precise leveling, allowing measurements at any angle within the tilt range. This breakthrough technology reduces setup time and increases productivity, especially valuable when working around obstacles or in confined spaces where traditional vertical positioning is impractical.
