New POS MV V4 for Marine Vessels
Applanix has released its new POS MV V4 (Position and Orientation System for Marine Vessels). Based on integrated inertial technology, V4 is designed to increase operational capability and system performance when undertaking multibeam sonar survey operations. Engineered to operate under the most challenging marine conditions, a number of key components have been incorporated into V4 to enhance the existing capabilities of the POS MV and provide robust solutions for the marine survey industry. These include the latest Trimble Maxwell Custom L1/L2 GPS technology and the Zephyr geodetic antenna, which allows for super-accurate horizontal and vertical measurement together with a marked improvement in low-elevation tracking performance.
Additional POS MV V4 attributes include low-noise L1 and optional L2 carrier-phase measurements, latency of less than 20 milliseconds (at 20 times per second) and increased component reliability.
