Opera Duo
Robustness Meets Data Quality in the Most Intuitive Ground Penetrating Radar for Utility Location and Mapping
Opera Duo is the most robust and intuitive GPR for locating and mapping utilities. 100% manufactured by utility market leader IDS GeoRadar, the Opera Duo is a compact, easy to transport and deploy ground penetrating radar leveraging robustness, data quality and intuitiveness for unparalleled utility location and mapping. Opera Duo is available in two versions:
- Two-wheels: a compact and lightweight solution;
- Four-wheels: an adaptable solution for use on rough terrain.
Opera Duo is now available with the new camera kit whose aim is to reduce acquisition times, combine surface data with underground detection and allow a post-scanning analysis like you were on site!
During acquisition phase the grid on the camera guide you in the scanning to do parallel scans!
Furthermore the software generates automatic and referenced documentation to support the survey carried out.
Main features include:
- Superior Maneuverability – A large, comfortable handle to make pushing and pulling easier, large wheels for better control and a balanced weight distribution to offer minimum resistance.
- Robustness – Engineered and built to withstand the harshest field conditions, the Opera Duo is suitable for heavy use in every type of terrain.
- Data Quality – Large bandwidth offering the highest resolution; the largest dynamic range for the best penetration depth; and dual-head sensor integrating ultra-wide band antennas (250MHz and 700MHz).
- Intuitiveness – Just click the start button to receive the best performance in every soil condition. No need to perform calibration or adjust any other manual settings.
- Results Delivered On Site – The system tracks the position of the radar and marks targets automatically. All of the acquired data can be exported to CAD and GIS, and reports can be produced directly on site.
- Innovative in data processing – Opera Duo leverages IQMaps, the post-processing software for faster and smarter GPR data analysis.
- Remote Diagnostics Functionality – Maximize troubleshooting efficiency by transparently sharing diagnostics data via Cloud: from the on-field device to the Customer Support’s desktop.
The uNext platform offers an all-in-one, non-intrusive utility detection software solution which exploits the most advanced technologies and methodologies in the market.
100% developed by utility market leader IDS GeoRadar, the uNext platform is based on the Opera Duo and DS2000 Ground Penetrating Radars (GPR) leveraging, data quality and intuitiveness for unparalleled utility location and mapping.
The uNext platform is designed to operate directly on site maximizing user experience. Moreover, the solution is fully compatible with Leica Geosystems’ DX Manager software allowing for data storage and sharing in the cloud.
uNext Basic leverages:
- Any GNSS and/or TPS – seamless interface to IDS GeoRadar, Leica Geosystems and any other positioning sensors to provide the best geographical positioning of multiple utility targets – in a very short time.
- Cable locators – to quickly and easily integrate information on cable and pipe positioning. Users can benefit from an integrated view of GPR and EML data.
- Survey Report – to export survey reports including extracted maps and targets directly in the field.
- CAD/GIS – to transfer the identified targets to CAD or GIS maps for professional SUE / utility mapping.
- Cartography– to import the cartography of the surveyed area from different sources, and visualise geo-referenced underground asset position in real time.
The uNext Advanced platform leverages all the functionality comprised in the uNext Basic software. Moreover, it offers:
- Tomography – to create an even more accurate, faster 3D reconstruction of the underground utility network and merge this information with any existing cartographies. On site processing of radar tomographies to ease theinterpretation of results.
- Assisted Pipe Tracker – to detect a pipe or cable once and automatically have the software map the exact position of the utility over the surveyed area. Users can benefit from more accurate, reliable data and perform data acquisitions more productively, and in a shorter amount of time.
- Data re-processing – In addition to on-site data acquisition and processing features, users can re-process roughradar data to ultimately optimise data processing as well as customise data visualisation with filtering capabilities.
- Cloud Software Integration - Export, store, share and access data on major Cloud services providers for a streamlined workflow in utility detection.
The uNext platform is continually developed by our R&D department. More features will be avaliable to everyone as part of new software releases.
