vGIS Utilities

vGIS Utilities transforms your traditional GIS data into augmented reality displays and holograms overlain on your view of a physical job site.

Use a device already in your pocket—Android phone or iPhone, a tablet or even the futuristic Microsoft HoloLens—to “see” your underground utility infrastructure as you tour a work area. Water pipes, sewage systems and gas and electrical lines appear in your field of view as a natural extension of the real world.

vGIS creates instant awareness of your surroundings, saving you time and helping you avoid costly mistakes.

The Leica’s high-accuracy GG04 Plus GNSS assists users to identify underground utility assets with highest confidence..
