    The new version of Leica Nova MS60, the world’s first MultiStation, enables you to perform all surveying tasks with one instrument. It brings sensor fusion to the next level by combining:

    • Highest-end total station capabilities

    • 3D laser scanning, enabling you to scan up to 30’000 points per second

    • GNSS connectivity

    • Digital imaging

    The MS60 comes with Leica Captivate, an onboard software with easy-to-use apps that cover all your surveying tasks. To make your work even more productive, you can benefit from the MS60’s  Dynamic Lock feature as well as the newly added, revolutionary setup assistant feature, Autoheight Feature - which helps you setup even faster and more accurately with the simple press of a button.

    When to use the Leica Nova MS60:

    • Surfaces and volumes in construction and mining: spoil heaps and stock piles, DTM creation and checking surfaces, material thickness, blast faces and ground levels
    • Analysis of complex structures and objects within plant, marine and utility projects: dimensional control, as-built and record keeping
    • Measuring buildings and structures: bridge condition/clearance analysis, BIM and as-built
    • Façade, elevations and heritage work: creation of traditional façade deliverables, 3D models and photographic documentation
    • Traditional topographic surveys for surveying and mapping: creation of traditional deliverables like 2D maps or 3D models
    • Monitoring measurement and analysis of ground and structures: real-time or periodic measurement of bridges, dams, buildings and earth, ice and snow

    Discover how you can benefit from our Leica Captivate Inspect Surface app: 

    See what our customer has to say about tying the MS60 into a perfect workflow:

    Highest-end total station

    Highly accurate angle and distance measurements, robust design and easy-to-use apps. With improved automated functionalities, like Dynamic Lock and Autoheight, and the self-learning ARTplus features, the MS60 increases your efficiency, even in the most challenging conditions.

    When to use the Leica Nova MS60

    Traditional surveying and so much more. Learn ways our scanning total station enables measurement tasks and deliverables for a range of sites and structures.

    • Surfaces and volumes in construction and mining, soil heaps and stockpiles, DTM creation and checking surfaces, material thickness, blast faces and ground levels
    • Analysis of complex structures and objects within plant, marine and utility projects: dimensional control, as-built and record keeping
    • Measuring buildings and structures: bridge condition/clearance analysis, BIM and as-built
    • Facade, elevations and heritage work: creation of traditional deliverables like 2D maps or 3D models
    • Deformation monitoring of structures and ground: automated or periodic measurements of buildings, transportation infrastructure, natural hazards, dams and other objects

    Integrated surveying, monitoring and CAD software

    • Leica Captivate - the MS60’s onboard software with easy-to-use apps that cover all your surveying tasks. Includes a range of tools to optimise scanning tasks, like the Inspect Surface app and more.
    • Leica Infinity - an intuitive surveying office software enabling seamless data transfer from the MS60 to the office to manage, process, analyse and quality check your field data.
    • Leica GeoMoS - the automated deformation monitoring software providing movement analysis, reports and notifications
    • Leica Cyclone - point cloud processing, management, collaboration and visualisation software.
    • Leica Cloudworx - CAD plugins that allow you to work efficiently with large point clouds directly in your chosen CAD system
    • Additional Hexagon packages and selected partner software
