Show Highlights: iCORUS‑02 Airborne Gravimeter & iANARO HDD Navigation
iCORUS-02 Airborne Strapdown Gravimeter
CORUS‑02 – Precision in Gravimetry and Navigation
The iCORUS‑02 is a next‑generation strapdown gravimeter and navigation system. Equipped with ring laser gyros and high‑accuracy accelerometers, it delivers reliable data for airborne and shipborne gravimetry, navigation, and stabilization. With built‑in data storage and real‑time output of position, velocity, and attitude, it is the ideal solution for geophysical surveys and demanding navigation tasks.
iPosCAL‑GRAV – Smart Processing for Gravimetry Campaigns
iPosCAL‑GRAV is iMAR Navigation’s powerful post‑processing software. It transforms raw INS/GNSS data from systems like the iCORUS‑02 into precise gravimetry results. Automated workflows, cross‑over analysis, and gravity map generation make it fast and efficient to process large‑scale survey campaigns – in the air or at sea.
