Latec's GPS Drainage Tile Mapping System Is The Only System Designed For The Drainage Contractor's Needs.

Latec's GPS mapping system has been specifically designed from input they received from farm drainage contractors who wanted a simple, yet rugged way of mapping the location of drainage tile as the tile is being installed by the tile machine. 

Using a submeter GPS front end, the LATEC MDU (Memory Dis play Unit) will automatically record up to 30 maps or as much as 500 hours of GPS data. The MDU operates from 7 to 35 volts, and only displays the information you need on its easy to read alphanumeric backlit display. The waterproof MDU is then removed from the job site, and connected to a PC with Windows 95/98/2000 software, which loads any or all of the maps stored in the MDU.

Once in the computer, the maps are stored as disc files that can be added together, edited, scaled and printed. The sophisticated features are superior to many of those found in most graphics programs.



Benefits:

• tile maps are being drawn to scale while you install drainage tile, saving you time and money
• once stored on your computer, existing lines can be easily located
• software program provides enhanced map printouts including dimension lines, flow direction, notes and labels
• quick setup and easy to use

Features:

• rugged weatherproof Memory Display Unit (MDU) designed to mount on drainage machine
• up to 500 hours of memory storage before downloading is required
• simple to operate with only two switches which start recording tile and stops recording tile
• the optional automatic recording feature eliminates manually pressing the record switch allowing for hands free operation
• easy to install

Easy to use Graphic Interface
With the user tool box you can :
