- L1 L2 Multi-Constellation RTK
- Accuracy equals Time and Cost Savings
- Setup and Integration Services Offered
Ease of Operation
DREDGEPACK/HYPACK compatibility or use our custom software to manage the system. All units come with a rugged user interface tablet with a locking mount.
Remote Support. 4G Cell WIFI enabled for remote support and diagnosis.
Excavator Sensors
All-inclusive hardware and sensors are designed to be rapidly deployed in the most rigorous of environments.
Entire system transported in two Pelican HD cases. This is excavator and ground stations.
Base Control Station
The Solar Base Station provides a fixed grounding point for the unit. 110VAC or 12VDC battery with solar panel compatible base station are included in the kit.
What is RTK GPS?
Real-time Kinematics or RTK GPS is a survey-grade precision GPS that gives dredge excavator operators the exact location of the bucket or hydraulic attachment underwater. A base station is used as a fixed point, which works in tandem with RTK GPS to provide the highest precision possible. The base station is like a True North that the unit can always calibrate to. This provides accuracy to less than an inch instead of feet, which is critical when a dredging project needs high precision.

RTK GPS For Hydraulic or Mechanical Dredging
The HAWK VISION System supports both hydraulic dredging using dredge or slurry pumps or traditional mechanical dredging with clamshells and buckets. Let us know your project for further details.
Dredge Positioning Applications
- Marine Dredging from Land OR Barge
- Suitable for Mechanical OR Hydraulic Dredging
- Dry Material Mass Excavation with Buckets
- Clam Shell or Grab Dredge Compatible
Hydraulic Dredging
Attach the RTK GPS Positioning system to your excavator mounted hydraulic or electric powered dredge pump to always know where the suction head is under the waterline for marine or lake dredging
Mechanical Dredging
Attach the RTK GPS Positioning system to your excavator’s dredging bucket or other attachment to always know where the bucket is under the waterline.
