Leica Geosystems says that the ergonomic layout of the GKP100 allows quick and precise typing, making it an ideal tool for surveying and construction professionals.

Its Li-Ion internal battery offers weeks of use on a single charge, with a full recharge taking just six hours via USB-C.

The GKP100 is compatible with all current and future tablets, including Leica Geosystems’ CC200, CC180, and CS30.

However, it is specifically designed for use with Leica Captivate field software running on Windows tablets. This is said to provide users with a tool for data entry across various environments.
