Applanix Introduces POS MV Elite™ for Marine Surveying

RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO – Applanix introduced today its new high-performance motion reference system for maritime surveying and mapping--the POS MV Elite. The POS MV Elite is a tightly coupled Inertial/GPS system that employs high precision ring laser gyros. The system includes a highly accurate state-of-the-art inertial measurement unit (IMU) originally designed for the aerospace industry and is now available for marine hydrographic service. POS MV Elite produces significantly improved roll and pitch measurement accuracies, approximately two times better, than the current industry standard POS MV 320. The system offers true heading accuracy without the need for dual GPS installation. The POS MV Elite also utilizes the same proven computer and GPS components found throughout the Applanix POS product line.
