Engineered for precision, built for the field

The Locator One provides autonomous GNSS-based monitoring for construction, maritime, and geotechnical projects.

Why monitoring is essential

In today’s world of geodetic data collection, the demand for precise, reliable, and efficient monitoring solutions is growing rapidly. Whether it’s construction sites, tunnel entrances, bridges, or other critical infrastructure, continuous monitoring ensures structural integrity and long-term safety.

The same applies to water levels, dike reinforcements, and retaining walls, where monitoring can prevent costly failures and disasters.

The Locator One

The Locator One is an autonomous GNSS-based 3D monitoring station, designed for construction companies, surveyors, maritime companies, geotechnical and civil engineers, and asset managers dealing with complex movement monitoring. It delivers sub-centimeter accuracy in 3D, both in relative coordinates and based on your local absolute coordinate system, by mounting the devices directly on an object or on a settlement rod for ground monitoring.

How does the device work?

INSTALLATION

A fleet of Locator One devices is deployed across your project area.

For ground monitoring, devices are mounted on settlement rods to capture vertical movement and sand layer thickness.

For asset, structure, and environmental monitoring, devices are installed directly on bridges, tunnels, dams, quays, retaining walls, or strategically placed to track water levels and slope movements such as landslide risk.

CONTROL

Each device transmits observations and metadata via an IoT network to our cloud platform. After precise geodetic adjustments and calculations, the processed data is delivered back to you: giving you full control from behind your desk.

DASHBOARD

Results can be visualized in Parvamoti or integrated into the client’s preferred system via API. Data is presented in clear dashboards and can be exported into graphs, diagrams, or spreadsheets for trend detection, incident monitoring, and predictive analysis.

A NEW WAY OF MONITORING

Keep an Eye on Every Movement

Locator One delivers accurate and reliable geodetic data through our dashboard Parvamoti or your preferred information system.

Compared to the traditional method of collecting geodetic observations, the automatic device offers numerous advantages. In addition to giving precise GNSS measurements and measuring the distance to ground with radar, the Locator One guarantees:

Accuracy

Locator One delivers sub-centimeter GNSS accuracy:

  • Horizontal: 2 mm + 0.5 ppm (1σ)

  • Vertical: 4 mm + 0.5 ppm (1σ)

  • Long-term trend: <1 mm

The integrated radar sensor adds 1 mm distance accuracy (1σ), enabling combined ground and structural monitoring. An autonomous device that guarantees consistent data and 95% uptime.

Predictability

By collecting and processing data at pre-defined timestamps, Locator One ensures consistent and predictable results. This enables accurate forecasting of subsidence, settlement, and structural deformation, giving project managers the ability to take preventive action before risks escalate.

Safety

Improves construction site safety by eliminating unnecessary human involvement, in-person site visits and use of 4X4 cars on terrains.

Sustainability

Powered by solar energy and a super capacitor, Locator One functions autonomously and eliminates the need for maintenance rides, reducing CO2 during operations.

Making High-Precision Surveying Accessible

Locator One uses GNSS and RADAR sensors to monitor both the vertical movement of the original ground level and the level and thickness of added sand layers.

Along with measuring the settlement of layers, we develop the Locator product to serve other monitoring purposes such as the movement of bridges, harbor quays and dam walls.
