The SiteBoss Foreman Rover is a GPS rover specifically engineered for construction layout, drawing from decades of layout and GPS field experience. It is exceptionally lightweight, weighing only 4.5 pounds, making it about half the weight of most popular rovers in the market. This compact device (4.7 in x 4.7 in x 3.3 in) supports multiple constellations: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS, ensuring wide-ranging and accurate positioning. Key features include a front panel with 4 LED indicators and 2 physical buttons, an IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating safeguarding against temporary immersion, and a calibration-free IMU tilt sensor for pole-tilt compensation that is immune to magnetic disturbances. The rover's power consumption is typically 4 W, with a 6,800 mAh, 7.4 V Li-ion battery that provides up to 14.5 hours of operating time as a UHF / 4G RTK Rover.
