Powerful deformation monitoring tools for virtually any condition

When we started working extensively on deformation monitoring projects, we knew we would need the perfect GPS unit to achieve the accuracy and reliability levels that our clients demanded. After trying equipment from several manufacturers, we realized we were not going to find what we needed. So we designed and built our own.
For a monitoring system to be effective, a reliable flow of data is paramount. Our hardware products have been specifically designed for the challenges encountered during years of monitoring projects.

GPS/GNSS sensors

NavStar’s suite of GPS/GNSS sensors (GMS700 & GMS800) can be rapidly deployed for three-dimensional displacement and tilt measurements for deformation monitoring in extreme climates and a variety of geospatial applications.  

With no moving parts and the ability to provide 24/7 automated monitoring data in extreme climates, GPS/GNSS sensors are an ideal choice for monitoring slopes and structures such as, open pit mines, dams, landslides and other hazards. 

Hundreds of NavStar’s GPS/GNSS sensors have been deployed world-wide and these have been successfully used on long-term projects in inhospitable environments. The experience we have gained has enabled us to develop both hardware and software that has
