- Information is presented to the operator to help them do their job more efficiently, safely and quickly. The operator knows where they are at all times; and what needs to be done to meet the required electronic design - improving productivity and safety while reducing delays waiting for a surveyor or grade checker.
- Over-excavating and -filling are significantly reduced reducing labour and machine operating time.
- Key operator and equipment information is gathered by the system and automatically transmitted to a central database to provide objective, accurate information for analysis to optimize plans, compliance management, personnel planning and incident analysis.
