The Leica CS50 Basic brings Leica Captivate surveying workflows to a lightweight controller built for everyday fieldwork. Its ergonomic design, accessible controls, and durable construction help crews stay productive in demanding jobsite conditions.

With 4GB RAM and 64GB of data storage, the CS50 Basic supports survey datasets, CAD files, IFC models, and imagery. As part of the Captivate portfolio, it works alongside Leica total stations and GNSS instruments to support a coordinated workflow—from project preparation and data collection to final verification. When connected to the internet, GeoCloud helps field and office teams share project information and stay coordinated.
