SBG – Navsight Land-Air
Navsight Land-Air is a full high performance inertial navigation solution designed to make surveyors’ mobile data collection easier, whether it is terrestrial or aerial. It is an extremely versatile solution, made of an Inertial Measurement Unit available at three different performance levels, and connected to Navsight box, a rugged equipment embedding the fusion intelligence, the GNSS receiver, and all connections to external equipment such as LiDAR, cameras, computer, etc.
Navsight solution is composed of various components that can be adjusted or configured according to your specific application needs. The IMU is the main sensing element and the most important performance driving factor. In case of good GNSS conditions and entry-level land-air survey, users can select the Ekinox IMU. For more challenging conditions, such as difficult GNSS environments or high altitude, the Apogee grade is the sensor of choice to maintain the best accuracy. For ultimate accuracy, the Horizon IMU is the optimal choice.
| Applications | |
| Surveying applications require precise data collection across diverse and challenging terrains, from dense urban areas to rugged, open landscapes and high altitudes. These environments often present GNSS signal obstructions and multipath issues due to structures like buildings, foliage, and mountains. Additionally, airborne surveys demand navigation stability and data integrity at varying altitudes and in dynamic atmospheric conditions, which can impact accuracy. SBG Systems’ Navsight Land-Air Solution addresses these complexities with a robust, adaptable platform suited for both land and aerial survey missions. Our Navsight solution delivers consistent accuracy by combining high-performance inertial measurement with advanced GNSS technology and sensor fusion, even when GNSS signals are interrupted. Its modular IMU options allow surveyors to select the ideal grade for their specific needs, ensuring optimal performance in various conditions. With Navsight Land-Air, surveyors achieve reliable, high-precision data collection, streamlining mapping, infrastructure planning, and geospatial data acquisition.

| Navsight Land-Air features | |
| Navsight is a comprehensive inertial navigation solution, specifically designed for the survey markets. Leveraging on existing SBG Systems inertial sensors, exclusive advanced algorithms and high performance GNSS technology, it also adds an incredibly easy to use setup.
The Navsight processing unit can be connected to a wide range of aiding sensors such as GNSS, DVL, Odometer. Get scalable performance for every application with our Marine solution. By choosing the Ekinox IMU grade you get a low power consumption, economical, compact and lightweight version, ideal for mobile mapping, autonomous vehicles, and tactical operations. With our highly versatile Apogee IMU grade solution, you will obtain an amazing performance under GNSS Outage, ideal for applications requiring reliable navigation and orientation data in harsh, GNSS-denied conditions. Last but not least, our Horizon IMU grade version is the highest performance available in Navsight Series. Leveraging on a closed loop Fiber Optic Gyroscopes technology (FOG Technology), this IMU is the unit of choice for most difficult conditions such as high-altitude survey or single antenna airborne applications and harsh automotive environments. The ultra low gyro bias enable optimal performance on large vessels with low dynamics with very low drift. The rack version of Navsight processing unit is also available and it’s well suited for integration into a standard 19” rack setup. In addition, the use of standard connectors such as RJ-45 and DB-9 enable fast integration. |
