At Geo Week 2026, Emesent, a global leader in autonomous mapping technology, launched the Emesent GX1, the world's most accurate integrated Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) scanner.
The product marks a significant breakthrough and industry first, by achieving 5-10mm global accuracy to deliver unparalleled precision for topographic surveying and building and infrastructure construction. It can even reduce the time required to survey a site by up to 95%, reducing what once took weeks into a single day of scanning.
The GX1 is an integrated, all-in-one system where LiDAR, RTK, cameras, and software work together seamlessly from capture to validated deliverable. It eliminates the longstanding trade-off faced by survey firms and the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry between mobile scanning speed and dependable survey-grade accuracy.
- Accuracy Survey Firms Can Trust: GX1 is the only SLAM-based mobile scanner system delivering 5-10mm global accuracy combined with rapid scanning capabilities. Incorporating client-first design, integrated RTK and Emesent’s proprietary SLAM algorithm, GX1 offers repeatable results survey firms can rely on.
- Backed by Emesent’s Proven SLAM Algorithm: Emesent’s SLAM technology, which powers its award-winning Emesent Hovermap product, was developed and validated in some of the most extreme real-world environments—GPS-denied, underground locations.
- Flexible Georeferencing and Versatile Deployment: GX1 has four purpose-built deployment modes: backpack, survey pole, vehicle mount, and supported handheld.
“By putting the power of SLAM into the hands of the everyday surveyor, the GX1 raises the bar for mobile scanning accuracy and keeps critical projects on track,” said Dr. Stefan Hrabar, Chief Strategy Officer and Co-Founder of Emesent.
