Overview

The F285 GNSS-Aided Inertial Navigation System (Attitude and Positioning Systems) is one of the models within our new generation of high accuracy measurement instruments for use in the marine hydrographic and laser survey market. This new generation of GNSS-Aided INS systems embeds high accuracy components (accelerometers and gyros) and smart algorithms.

Designed to meet the exacting and demanding requirements of the hydrographic survey market, the F285 instruments are easy to install and use. These instruments produce very accurate positioning, heading and MOTION data in the most dynamic offshore conditions.

The light and rugged F285, packaged in an IP67 rated housing, is a reliable, repeatable, and cost-effective solution suitable for use on vessels of all sizes. The F285 is one model within our F280 Series®. This model is Multi frequency dual antenna GNSS receiver supporting GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou enabled to improve constellation coverage and heading lock stabilization.

An easy-to-use and intuitive web interface provides configuration, control and processing functionality including built-in iHeave (intelligent heave). In addition to real-time heave measurement and output, the F285 now directly computes and outputs our long-standing and proven iHeave (intelligent Heave) solution without the need for top-side processing or software

The F285 is also available in a Pre-Calibrated Housing Assembly Configuration which removes the need for Field Calibration and therefore facilitates fast and repeatable field deployment and set up.
