2373 Spectra Precision is introducing its sophisticated ProMark 700 system, a GNSS network RTK rover aimed at duties in land survey applications. The unit weighs in at only 650grammes and is said to be the lightest GNSS RTK smart antenna available on the market. Its light weight, together with its compact and slim design, makes the unit the receiver portable and comfortable for field use. It features a long battery life, a rugged, waterproof design and a wide operating temperature range, allowing the ProMark 700 to be used in harsh outdoor environments. The new receiver is equipped with 220 dual-frequency and dual-constellation GNSS channels that allow tracking of all available L1/L2 GPS/GLONASS satellite signals. It provides features for effective network RTK operations, without rarely-used modules or options. In addition, the ProMark 700 has been designed as an intuitive, simple and easy-to-use receiver, where all operations are performed from the data collector. Due to their size and light weight, the perfect companions to ProMark 700 are the low-cost MM10 data collector or the new T41 data collector with a smart phone design. The ProMark 700 receiver can be used with Spectra Precision field software: either Survey Pro v5.2.1 or FAST Survey v3.1. Both field software applications provide a complete set of features that meet the demanding expectations of professional surveyors and are optimised for RTK network surveys.
Trimble says that its combined device for mobile communications and surveying data collection offers high performance and reliability.

Trimble used bauma 2013 to introduce a construction grade control simulator for the specific purpose of training bulldozer operators. The simulator enables Sitech Technology dealers to deliver training on the GCS900 grade control system in a safe and realistic environment, without removing a bulldozer from production duties to carry out operator training. Trimble’s grade control simulator features fully interactive joysticks, a motion platform, decelerator and CB460 control box, enabling bulldozer operators
