The problem

You shouldn't have to rebuy your whole system.

As trusted product lines reach end-of-life, manufacturers push an all-or-nothing upgrade inside their own ecosystem. The cost lands on field crews, every day.

01

Locked ecosystems

Buy the complete stack from one approved vendor, or you're on your own in the field.

02

Gear that won't talk

Radios that won't pair across manufacturers. Bases that can't reach a different-brand rover.

03

No upgrade path

When a product line is discontinued, there's no affordable way forward, only replacement.

04

Lost field time

UHF confusion over frequency, power, and range burns hours that should be survey work.

The bridge

A packaged path off the upgrade treadmill.

We assemble hardware, software, and corrections into one bridge, so your Carlson investment keeps earning while you move, at your pace, to open and flexible kit.

Hardware · CHC Nav

Modern GNSS receivers

Anchor hardware that talks across brands, like the CHC iBase base station.

Scanners

Point cloud to deliverable.
Same day.

The RS7 captures SLAM point clouds you can walk straight into CAD. 3Dsurvey turns raw data into linework, surfaces, and reports without the wait.
