Leica Geosystems GIS DataPRO Post-processing soft-
ware

Leica Geosystems

 

GIS DataPRO is used for data collec-

tion preparation and data post processing. Please refer to 
the “Getting Started with the GIS DataPRO Office Soft-
ware” User Manual for more details.  
To install the GIS DataPRO software:
1 Insert the CD-ROM into the CD drive of your PC.
2 Execute the “Setup” command.
3 Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.

Both a hardware and software user manual can be found 
on the CD in PDF format. The software itself contains a 
comprehensive online Help System. 

After the data is collected in the field, the GIS DataPRO 
office software allows you to import, edit and export the 
data to your GIS. The software can also be used to design 
codelists which allow you to customize the field data collec-
tion process to suit your needs. To learn more about the 
Leica Geosystems GIS DataPRO office software, please 
consult the “Getting Started with the GIS DataPRO Office 
Software" User Manual.

Receiver Hardware

Leica Geosystems GS20 Sensor

The Leica Geosystems

 

GS20 is a handheld GPS receiver 

for professional data mapping. With the position and the 
field data the user is capable to collect Data for his needs 
in his GIS application. The GPS receiver receives the GPS 
signal from the NAVSTAR satellites and calculates a range 
to the satellites that are visible.

The Leica Geosystems GS20 is a 12-channel L1 code and 
phase GPS receiver. The standard Leica Geosystems 
GS20 does record phase measurements for post 
processing purposes. Phase measurements are used 
internally to smooth pseudorange measurements for 
higher code positioning. Phase measurement recording for 
post processing is available.

There are three antennas available with the Leica Geosys-
tems

 

GS20:

• AT501 – tracks L1 only.
• RTB Combined Antenna - tracks L1 and RTCM differ-

ential signal from public and private beacon infastruc-
ture.

• RTS Combined Antenna - tracks L1 and  differential 

signals from Racal DGPS Satellite systems.

Please refer to the Field Guide for the use of your Leica 
Geosystems GS20 equipment.
