Trimble is now offering a sophisticated new base station receiver system

The R750 can be used to broadcast Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) corrections for a wide range of applications, including seismic surveying, monitoring and civil construction. Access to available satellite signals is said to provide improved performance and reliability when used with a Trimble ProPoint Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) rover. ProPoint can boost performance in challenging GNSS conditions, with groundbreaking signal management.

Featuring a built-in LTE modem, the R750 offers corrections via the internet, making it easier to extend the range of a base station with cellular coverage. The built-in modem also provides remote access and management, delivery of email alerts and notifications, and data transfer capabilities between the field and the office.

The R750 is said to deliver better satellite tracking and connectivity. It offers the ability to manage a base station remotely and receive status notifications about the unit while in the office. This reduces downtime and the need to travel to the site.

For monitoring applications, the R750 provides precision capabilities for construction and geospatial customers deploying automated systems. Combined with Trimble 4D Control real-time monitoring software, users can capture high-frequency 3D positions for alarming and reporting on movement. The R750 offers multiple communication methods that provide flexibility for customers on how they deploy their monitoring system.
