Trimble

You face any number of challenges in marine surveying. Tidal height variations, system integration issues, distance from land and a survey area that you can't always see. Your ability to rapidly carry out a marine survey can be compromised by anything from equipment integration problems to working at night or in foggy conditions. Whether it's surveying a waterway for charting purposes or an environmental survey, a proven Trimble system can provide you with the tools to position you for success.
Trimble offers a range of high-precision centimeter level (RTK) and sub-meter (DGPS) positioning solutions which together with other marine sensors can be integrated with the NavPro Navigation Software by Communication Technology.

RTK

The RTK Advantage provides centimeter horizontal and vertical positioning accuracies. Using RTK requires a source of satellite corrections such as an RTK base station. A Trimble RTK system can replace a radio tide gauge for real-time tide and heave measurement, and a survey grade Gyro compass for precision heading.

bulletTrimble SPS551 Modular GPS Receiver
The Trimble® SPS551 Modular GPS Receiver ideal for real-time marine construction use, in-vehicle site supervisor operations, or as a sub-meter DGPS base station. This receiver lets you conduct real-time differential surveys and navigation without a base station when using the OmniSTAR™ XP/HP subscription services (over land masses) or in areas of SBAS (WAAS/EGNOS) coverage.
For DGPS operation the optional internal transmit and receive radio and the internal battery make this a truly portable base station and rover combination. The Trimble SPS551 GPS Receiver can also be used with a variety of external Trimble or 3rd party radios you may already own to reduce your investment of time and money with existing infrastructure.
Features and Benefits:
 
- Modular DGPS receiver allows mounting flexibility for greater accuracy and added security
 - Long life internal battery lets you get to work immediately - no time consuming wiring at temporary base station or on the vessel
 - Superior connectivity with multiple Bluetooth®, Ethernet and serial data ports
 - Internal radio options for transmission and reception ensures a rugged compact receiver
 - OmniSTAR™ XP/HP subscription services provides decimeter accuracy
 - Add on the Trimble SPS551H GPS Receiver for precise heading output and DGPS position
Applications
 - Waterway surveying
 - Construction Site Supervisor operations
 - Aggregate dredging
 - Harbor construction
 - DGPS Base station

bulletTrimble SPS651 Modular GPS Receiver
The Trimble® SPS651 Modular GPS Receiver is the receiver of choice for a construction supervisor's truck -- where cost-effective real-time positioning with precise vertical measurement is required. With 10cm (location) horizontal accuracy and 2cm (precise) vertical accuracy, contractors can be confident knowing they are getting the right positioning tool at the right price.
The SPS651 receiver can operate in all Location GPS modes, including Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS), DGPS, OmniSTAR (VBS, XP, and HP services), and Location RTK mode.
It can also be upgraded to track the GLONASS satellite constellation signals - allowing it to operate in areas with obstructed sky visibility or during times of limited GPS availability.
Modularity allows the flexibility to mount the receiver and GPS antenna in a variety of ways, example on a pole, backpack, site vehicle, light machinery or marine vessel. The receiver can be mounted in an accessible location where it is easy to configure and is secure from theft and weather, while the antenna can be mounted in a location that provides clear line of sight to sky and that reduces the potential for multipath.
Features and Benefits
 - 2cm vertical and 10cm horizontal accuracy in Location RTK mode - provides the vertical precision of an RTK rover at a reduced cost
 - Tracks L1 and L2 GPS signals
 - Upgradeable to track L2C and GLONASS signals for increased performance in areas of obstructed sky view for GPS-only
 - Uses the industry-leading Trimble RTK Engine for real-time corrections
 - 1 Pulse Per Second (1PPS) output for precise synchronization with other positioning equipment such as marine multibeam echosounders
 - Operational in all Location GPS modes, including Satellite Based Augmentation Systems (SBAS), DGPS, OmniSTAR (VBS, XP, and HP services, subscription required), and higher accuracy Location RTK mode
 - Can be used with an external radio modem, an internal 900 MHz radio for CMR corrections or an internal 450 MHz radio for transmit/receive of RTCM corrections
 - Modular design allows mounting flexibility for greater accuracy and added security
 - Add on the Trimble SPS551H GPS Receiver for precise heading output
Applications
 - Construction site supervisor operations
 - Pole and ATV-mounted rover applications
 - Dredging operations
 - Harbor construction
 - Land reclamation

bulletTrimble SPS751 and SPS851 Modular GPS Receiver
Trimble® SPS751 and SPS851 Modular GPS Receivers are ideal for semi-permanent or permanent setups, marine-based applications, as well as construction rover applications. The antennas can also be mounted in a marine vessel or on a site supervisor's vehicle.
The Trimble SPS751 and SPS851 receivers combine the radio and GPS receiver in a single housing. This allows contractors to secure the majority of their investment inside a site trailer or carrying case, protected from the elements and/or theft, leaving only the antennas outside.
Available in a range of options to suit your individual applications, flexibility and performance requirements, versatile Trimble GPS receivers are a future-proof investment. The receivers are designed to use all currently available satellite signals including L1, L2 and the GPS modernized L2C code. The SPS851 receiver can be upgraded with GLONASS and L5 GPS signals to optimize performance in areas of tough GPS-only conditions and maximize your investment well into the future.

DGPS

Provides sub meter horizontal position accuracies. DGPS requires a source of satellite corrections such as IALA Beacon, EGNOS, WAAS, proprietary SBAS or DGPS Base station transmissions. A Trimble DGPS receiver can be combined with HYDROpro Navigation and many industry standard echosounders and magnetometers for surveying systems.

bulletTrimble® DSM™ 232 modular GPS Receiver
The Trimble® DSM™ 232 modular GPS receiver is your ideal solution for dynamic marine positioning tasks such as dredging in ports and navigation channels where it is integrated as the positioning sensor component. The Trimble DSM 232 receiver is capable of sub-meter, decimeter and centimeter accuracy and provides a complete range of GPS (Global Positioning System) positioning techniques including:
 - Beacon
 - DGPS
 - Omnistar
 - SBAS
 - RTK
The Trimble DSM 232 GPS receiver is also easy to upgrade to increase performance as your positioning requirements change.
The entry-level Trimble DSM 232 is a high-performance, sub-meter GPS receiver that includes a combined beacon, GPS and satellite differential correction antenna. It uses free public (MSK beacon or Satellite Based Augmentation System (SBAS) corrections such as WAAS) or subscription-based private differential correction services (OmniSTAR VBS) to calculate sub-meter positions in real time.
The Trimble DSM 232 GPS receiver is also available in two dual-frequency models to use the accurate satellite differential based OmniSTAR1 XP/HP correction services delivering decimeter level accuracy, or to use the Real Time Kinematic (RTK) capabilities for centimeter accuracy in three dimensions.
In situations where your applications may change over time, Trimble can supply an upgradeable model of the Trimble DSM 232 sub-meter receiver so you can upgrade the receiver to greater accuracies at a later stage.
1 Note - OmniSTAR VBS/XP/HP require a subscription from the service provider.
