Delivering maximum productivity
The EPOCH 10 system integrates a survey-grade receiver with the Spectra Precision Recon data collector— a proven, ultra-rugged field solution designed especially for tough surveying conditions. The compact and lightweight EPOCH 10 Recon handles drops, temperature extremes, dirt and water, making it one of the toughest L1 GPS solutions available.

Additionally, the EPOCH 10 system includes fully integrated software for field and office. TDS Interlock Geodetic Controller software runs on the Recon, working in the field to collect and manage the data on site. When you return to the office, download the data to Survey Office for post-processing.

The distinctive EPOCH 10 Spectra Precision Recon, with its unique cap, runs Interlock Geodetic Controller software in the field.
