RTK GPS Systems
Enhancing Precision in Surveying and Dredging with RTK GPS
RTK GPS (Real-Time Kinematics Global Positioning System) is the gold standard in survey-grade positioning technology, delivering unmatched precision for location tracking and navigation. This advanced system is essential in situations where accuracy is crucial, such as operating hydraulic attachments underwater or navigating complex and obscured terrains.
Unlike traditional GPS, which provides accuracy within several feet, RTK GPS significantly enhances precision by processing data from both GPS satellites and a nearby base station that serves as a fixed reference point. By comparing these signals, RTK GPS achieves positioning accuracy within less than an inch, making it indispensable for applications like dredging, where even slight deviations can impact project outcomes.
The real-time tracking capabilities of RTK GPS ensure that every movement and placement is executed with the highest level of accuracy, providing the control needed to meet demanding project requirements. This precision makes RTK GPS a vital tool for modern surveying and dredging operations, optimizing performance and ensuring superior results.

Enhance Mobility with HAWK Amphibious Systems
The HAWK Amphibious Undercarriage System boosts excavator mobility, enabling efficient operation in challenging wet conditions such as swamps, marshes, wetlands, and rivers. As the exclusive distributor of HAWK in South Africa, Pump and Dredge Africa ensures access to this innovative system, providing the equipment and support needed to tackle even the most demanding environments with confidence.
RTK GPS for Hydraulic and Mechanical Dredging
The HAWK VISION System delivers exceptional precision for both hydraulic and mechanical dredging operations. Whether you’re using slurry pumps for hydraulic dredging or traditional clamshells and buckets for mechanical dredging, this advanced RTK GPS system ensures accurate navigation and flawless performance. It is particularly valuable for marine dredging conducted from land or barges, providing precise monitoring and control.
This versatile system is ideal for dry material mass excavation using buckets and supports various dredging methods, including mechanical and hydraulic. It integrates seamlessly with clamshell or grab dredges, enabling efficient and accurate dredging across a wide range of applications, ensuring optimal results for every project.

Mechanical Dredging with HAWK RTK GPS

In mechanical dredging, the HAWK RTK GPS Positioning System is an essential tool, providing operators with continuous, real-time tracking of the dredging bucket’s exact position. This precision ensures accuracy throughout the excavation process, streamlining operations whether managed on-site or remotely. The rugged design of the system guarantees dependable performance, even when dredging coarse or tough materials from the waterbed. The HAWK Vision System’s impact-resistant construction ensures hassle-free operation, making it ideal for challenging dredging environments.
Hydraulic Dredging with HAWK RTK GPS

The HAWK RTK GPS Positioning System enhances the accuracy and efficiency of hydraulic dredging by providing real-time tracking of the suction head when integrated with excavators or electric-powered dredge pumps. This precise underwater monitoring is crucial for optimizing excavation in marine and lake environments, ensuring effective handling of soft materials such as debris, sediments, and slurries. By improving accuracy and productivity, the system elevates the overall performance of hydraulic dredging operations.
