Trimble
introduced its next-generation rugged handheld
computing devices with integrated Global Positioning
System (GPS) technology—the Trimble
GeoExplorer 2008 series.
With high-accuracy GIS data collection capabilities,
field workers can easily perform effective mapping
of infrastructure and more accurate asset inventories.
Because high accuracy positioning is available
in real-time, utility workers, public works
personnel, and others who locate buried and
hidden assets can more easily excavate cables
and pipes without the risk of damaging nearby
assets. In addition, back-office data processing
is eliminated, streamlining asset inventories
and as-built mapping jobs.
