SAGE has a wide variety of state of the art surveying instruments including 3D terrestrial laser scanner, GNSS RTK systems, robotic total stations, digital levels and RPAS/UAS/Drones.

Scheduled teaching classes have the highest priority to book and use the instruments. 

SAGE Instruments can be booked on CVEN Intranet
