Leica Geosystems technology keeps Burj Dubai tower standing tall
When completed, the Burj Dubai in Dubai, United Arab Emirates will stand over 2,651 feet - nearly twice the height of the Empire State Building. A building this tall and thin will experience movement at the upper levels caused by wind, crane loads, construction, thermal conditions, and other factors.

A Leica Geosystems monitoring network for the structure includes GPS antennas/receivers, total stations, continuously operating GPS reference stations, Leica GRX1200 Pro, Leica GPS Spider, Leica Geo Office Software, and Leica Nivel220 dual-axis precise clinometers. With over 240 control points installed, the Leica monitoring network accurately determines and analyzes displacement of the tower alignment from the vertical axis in real time with millimeter accuracy.
