Leica Geosystems, part of Hexagon, has announced the launch of the Leica RTC series of terrestrial laser scanners, comprising the Leica RTC300, RTC500, and RTC700.
Built on the company’s experience in terrestrial laser scanning, the new RTC series delivers improvements in scanning speed, accuracy, and range while introducing real-time workflow connectivity to support collaboration between field and office teams throughout the scanning process.
The Leica RTC series features advanced 3D laser scanning capabilities, with the company stating that the new scanners capture data faster and with 35% greater accuracy than the nearest competitor. The series also introduces Livelink, a real-time collaboration capability that enables project teams to connect during scanning, identify data gaps before leaving the site, and begin work on deliverables sooner.
The RTC series is available in three performance tiers, allowing users to upgrade to higher levels of performance as project requirements evolve without replacing existing systems.
Scalable superior performance
The new RTC series combines the speed, capability and versatility of the Leica RTC360 with the robustness and superior accuracy of the ScanStation P-Series, enabling specialised workflows across surveying, construction, industrial plants, public safety, and infrastructure. It includes three performance tiers based on the same platform: As projects grow in size and demand, users can upgrade to a higher performance tier without replacing their system.
Connected workflows
As project schedules compress and data volumes grow, geospatial teams are expected to deliver reliable, decision-ready information while work is still in progress. With the new RTC series, scanning, registration, and data sharing become one continuous process: 3D data moves between field, cloud and office. Livelink, a new capability in Leica Cyclone FIELD 360, streams scan data to Hexagon GeoCloud as it is captured. Multiple scanners can feed into one shared project in real time. Teams can reduce rework by confirming they’ve covered the entire site before the field crew leaves – and start producing deliverables even before scanning is finished.
“The RTC series reflects where reality capture is headed: faster data capture, better connected teams, and a platform built to scale,” says Tanja Birner, President at Hexagon’s Scanning & Mapping Division. “It gives customers a more powerful way to work today — and the confidence that their investment scales with them.”
The new RTC series replaces the existing Leica RTC360/LT and Leica ScanStation P30/P40/P50 product lines.
