In our latest article, we caught up with the team at Patersons Dunedin office who have been putting the CHCNAV Apache4 hydrographic surveying boat to the test on a long-term coastal monitoring project along the Otago Peninsula.
The project focuses on tracking sand movement along a 1.1 km stretch of coastline where groynes and imported sand have been installed as part of ongoing coastal mitigation.
The major telco providers have indicated that they will be shutting down the 3G cellular network to free up low-band spectrum to extend 5G service in rural areas. One NZ (formally Vodafone), Spark and 2 Degrees will be ending their service soon, starting from the end of 2025.
This shutdown will negatively impact many technologies, including some users of reference station networks including SmartFix. Read our guide on how to handle the 3G shutdown.
In partnership with KiwiRail, Global Survey and Cable Price, CB Civil has completed two successful trials of digital geofencing collision-avoidance technology, assessing how machine-control systems can improve safety and efficiency in rail construction.
The findings provide practical insight for KiwiRail’s Rail Network Rebuild (RNR) programme and the wider industry.
Next-gen ground penetrating radar system built for precise underground utility detection in urban areas.
Using Leica’s patented Equalised Scrambling Technology (EsT), it offers superior clarity and depth, ideal for locating fibre optics, metallic and non-metallic pipes, and other buried infrastructure.
The new Leica iCON Trades solution has been developed to simplify digital 3D measurement and layout tasks whilst delivering the highest accuracy.
Equipped with visual measurement technology, automated workflows and intuitive, industry-specific software, these solutions empower the user to work to a higher standard with unmatched efficiency!
Carl Saywell and his business partner started MS Civil seven years ago, since then they’ve grown from two people to over 50! We go onsite with their team to discuss how their adoption of Leica iCON technology has impacted the business.
“The main reason we see it as an advantage is purely because it gives trust to the guys on where they’re going and what they’re doing.”

This plug and play tiltrotator provides tilt and rotation functions only, available for compact excavators:
- EC02 SSO Plug & Play (1.5-3.5 tonne)
- EC204 SSO Plug & Play (2-4 tonne)
This enables contractors with smaller machines to benefit from all the versatility that a tiltrotator brings.
For our latest article, we went onsite with C&R Surveying to see how they are utilising the Leica AP20 AutoPole on a construction project in Orewa, North Auckland.
“Keeping up to date with the latest innovations provides us with the tools to work more productively and deliver better outcomes for our clients. The C&R team really enjoy how the AP20 solves problems for us in the field, we can reach areas that we couldn’t before and it integrates perfectly into our existing workflows.” Rick Bull, Director – C&R Surveying
