Professional RTK GNSS Rover for Precision Surveying

Name: Meridian M5 Plus Rover Set
Brand: Meridian
SKU: MET-GPSR-13
Price: 3590.00 USD
Availability: InStock

The Meridian M5 Plus delivers centimeter-level accuracy through advanced 1408-channel GNSS technology, designed for surveying professionals who demand reliable performance in any environment.

Multi-Constellation Precision

Track signals from GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, QZSS, IRNSS, and L-Band simultaneously for maximum satellite availability and positioning reliability. The 1408-channel receiver maintains lock even in urban canyons, under tree canopy, or near reflective surfaces where traditional systems struggle.

Tilt Compensation Technology

Work faster with the integrated 120° IMU tilt sensor that eliminates the need for pole leveling. Take accurate measurements at any comfortable angle, reducing setup time and physical strain during long survey sessions. The calibration-free design means you're productive from the moment you power on.

Built for the Field

Engineered to withstand demanding field conditions with IP67-rated protection against dust and water immersion. The 7000mAh battery provides up to 26 hours of continuous operation, while the lightweight construction reduces fatigue during extended use.

✓ Sub-centimeter RTK accuracy for professional-grade results
✓ All-day battery life eliminates mid-project power concerns
✓ Weatherproof design performs in rain, dust, and extreme temperatures
