Topcon Thermal Mapper for Asphalt Paving

Topcon Positioning Group announces the release of its Thermal Mapper for asphalt paving which is designed to monitor temperature segregation to prevent future problems and measure performance.

• Provides accurate compliance reporting — all with real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning accuracy
• Records temperature readings behind asphalt paver as paving is in progress and provides visualization to operators in real time of whether the mix falls within pre-defined temperature range, and if any segregation is limited within specifications
• Operators can adjust for more efficient and accurate project outcomes if the readings are unacceptable
• Uses RTK GPS positioning for more accurate results than conventional methods
• Creates data reporting files to download for applications such as DOT compliance through an interactive Pavelink module, the Topcon cloud-based logistics application for asphalt paving
