UK land and engineering survey firm Warner Surveys has taken delivery of a stock of new equipment worth over £500,000.
The purchase, facilitated through a finance deal with Opti-cal Survey Equipment and Ignition Asset Finance, is said to mark one of the highest value single purchases in the UK surveying industry.
The company has secured a package for more than 30 pieces of equipment including Leica Viva TS16 and Nova TS60 Total Stations and Leica LS15 Digital Levels, as well as a Leica BLK360 3D Laser Scanner, described as the world’s smallest imaging laser scanner, simplifying the collection of accurate 3D imagery and measurements.
Following recent advances in technology, Warner Surveys felt was time to upgrade the bulk of its equipment to benefit from new “cutting-edge” devices.
Peter Field, managing director at Warner Surveys said, “The importance of being at the forefront of new technology cannot be understated within the surveying profession. This latest investment enables Warner Surveys staff to operate at peak productivity whilst maintaining the highest standards of auditable accuracy.
“With multiple survey teams operating across the UK as well as Europe, the Middle East, South Korea and Kazakhstan, the performance and reliability of survey equipment must now be beyond question.”
Jim Warner, survey director at Opti-cal Survey Equipment added, “Opti-cal have been working with Warner Surveys for 15 years supplying a range of high-end survey equipment for an array of projects throughout this time. We supported Warner’s from initial advice on selecting the right equipment, through to the purchasing process on their latest investment of high precision equipment.”
