Trimble today introduced new systems and software to broaden its portfolio of Connected Site survey solutions:

 – New Trimble R4, Trimble R5 and Trimble R6 GPS Receivers
 – A new Trimble S3 Robotic Total Station
 – A new version of Trimble Business Center Software
 – New specialized Monitoring module for the Trimble Access SoftwareSuite

These positioning solutions provide even greater flexibility and versatility to address a user’s comprehensive surveying needs through scalable solutions and proven, reliable Trimble technology for all critical phases of surveying.

The announcement was made today at INTERGEO 2009, the world’s largest conference on geodesy, geoinformatics and land management.

New GNSS Receivers

The new Trimble R6 GPS System includes use of the modernized GPS L2C signals with an option to add GLONASS for faster, more consistent initialization in a variety of environments. The Trimble R6 is an integrated receiver system with GPS antenna, receiver and internal communications in a small, rugged package. It can be configured with a cellular modem for convenient operation with Trimble VRS networks, or with UHF radio for RTK base/rover applications. Compatible with a variety of Trimble controllers and field and office software, the Trimble R6 is flexible, scalable and ready for a variety of jobs that a surveyor’s growing business may require.

The new Trimble R5 GPS System is one receiver with many configurations. The modular system enables customers to choose the GPS antenna and communication options that best serve the needs of the application. Fixed to a tripod, secured on a rover pole, or stowed in a backpack, the Trimble R5 is ideal for any surveying task from control, measurement, design and stakeout, to as-built work.

The new Trimble R4 GPS System provides everything needed to perform basic survey projects. The system comes standard with GPS L1 and L2, with the availability to upgrade to GLONASS. With the easy to use Trimble Digital Fieldbook Software, surveyors can use the system in a Trimble VRS network or RTK applications and for static surveying work. With an optional integrated UHF
transmitter, it can also be used as a base station. The cable-free Trimble R4 is an accurate and reliable GPS receiver that surveyors can depend on when every point counts.
