MobileMapper™ 6
Affordable GIS/GPS with Nothing Missing
MobileMapper 6MobileMapper 6 is an affordable and easy-to-use, professional GPS/GIS handheldreceiver. It provides a complete set of all necessary features required of a mappingdevice for anyone who needs productive data collection and efficient assetmanagement in the field.
Performance GPSMobileMapper 6 GPS engine provides professional accuracy in real time and post-processing. This SBAS-enabled high-sensitivity GPS receiver computes andupdates your position even in difficult conditions, such as under tree canopy andin urban surroundings.
Versatile Mobile GIS SolutionThe MobileMapper 6 comes with Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 operating system,a color touch-screen, and it has Bluetooth for wireless connectivity. You cancollect GIS/GPS points and maps via the GIS application of your choice: either a third party software or the proprietary Ashtech MobileMapper Field software.You can also navigate, get your direction from the integrated e-compass, andcommunicate wirelessly.
Field-proven Rugged DesignMobileMapper fits comfortably in one hand and weighs less than eight ounces(224g). MobileMapper 6 is made for intensive outdoor use and can be dropped in the dirt or into water again and again without harm. It keeps working, and youwon’t lose any data.
Feature-rich Mapping DeviceEmbedded speaker and microphone make it easy to record audio files, for a rich archive of locations and projects. You can take pictures using the integrated 2-megapixel digital camera, use the e-compass to determine the cameraorientation at the time the picture is taken, and use other Windows Office Mobileapplications, all with a single device.
Easy-to-use MobileMapper Field SoftwareAshtech MobileMapper Field software provides easy-to-use and simple yetprofessional and effective GIS data collection capabilities. You can use thisoptional application to create and update maps for analysis and maintenance in a standard GIS system. Ashtech software is ideal for such GIS professionals asforesters, farmers, safety personnel, utility workers, and anyone who managespositioned assets in the field.
The Ashtech MobileMapper Field software includes all GPS features that GISprofessionals really need without the burden of complicated and rarely usedfunctions. The software is very intuitive and easy-to-use, requiring a minimum of training. It also provides direct interface to external devices such as 3M cablelocator or LTI range-finder for a complete field solution.
Boost your Accuracy with the Post-processing FeatureThe Ashtech MobileMapper Office tool can be used to differentially post-processraw GPS data collected with the MobileMapper Field software. Through post-processing, the positions of every GIS feature you collect in the field can beimproved to better than 1 meter.
Thanks to BLADE™ Ashtech unique processing algorithm, post-processing raw datawith MobileMapper Office is extremely efficient and straightforward. Through anInternet connection, MobileMapper Office can automatically find and download thebase data files that will match the collected raw data. Based on your quality PDOPquality criteria it can also provide you with post-processing quality indicators.MobileMapper Office also allows project preparation, synchronization withMobileMapper Field software and the management of your GIS maps and data.Finally, it allows you to export your data in the KML format in order to place yourcollected features on the Google background map.
A True Mobile GPS/GIS Receiver for Everyone
Key Software Features and Applications
Software FeaturesThe Ashtech MobileMapper Field software offers powerful yet easy-to-use GIS data collection features. Key GIS data-logging capabilities include:
n GPS data collection and navigation capabilitiesn On-screen labelling of collected featuresn SBAS corrections activation and de-activationn PDOP filtern Raw data collection for post-processing n Support of vector layers in MIF and CSV formatsn Support of maps in DXF formatn Continuous or vertex data collection and averagingn Area and perimeter calculation in the field for real-time area
determinationn Structured attribute information definition for each feature,
including text, numeric, date, time, area, perimeter, pictureor voice-tag attributes
n Support for the built-in digital camera for image associationwith a particular feature
n Possibility to offset measurements for all feature types includingpoint, line and area for logging hard-to-reach features
n E-compass reading for offset bearing calculation or pictureazimuth measurement
n Parallel logging of multiple layersn Support for raster data geo-referenced images in TIFF, JPEG
and Bitmap formatsn Geo-referencing of raster images in the fieldn Interface to external devices such as 3M Dynatel cable
locators or Laser Technology range-findersn Navigation and guidance to an existing feature or point
coordinates for the purpose of GIS data maintenancen Pre-defined (national and international) and user-defined /
custom coordinate systems n International languages support (17 languages supported)n Microsoft ActiveSync communication feature for data transfer
and synchronization between the GPS receiver and a PCplatform
Forestry and Environment
The highly sensitive MobileMapper 6 GPS receiver together with the easy-to-useMobileMapper Field software performs very well in difficult signal environments suchas under dense foliage. Applications include management of forestry, wetlanddelineation, environmental protection or vegetation mapping.
Agriculture
Ideally suited for agricultural applications, MobileMapper 6 gives you the power tomake accurate area and boundary measurements on native, fallow or cultivatedparcels of land. MobileMapper 6 is an excellent tool for mapping fields that may beeligible for subsidies payments or insurance.
Public Safety
The rugged exterior and versatility of software applications make the MobileMapper 6the first choice for Public Safety. Creation of first-response plans, mapping fireboundaries, crime location, disease incidence and storm damage mapping areconveniently done on-site with one simple tool.
Utilities and Oil & Gas
The MobileMapper 6 is able to take any supported mapping file into the field, updateit and transfer it back to the office GIS database. This enables any utility worker tonavigate to field infrastructure, update the GIS data in the field, and easily transferthis file back to the office. AP
