The expansion project at Port Botany is an investment in the area that will ensure Sydney's reputation as a competitive and reliable port well into the future. Trimble positioning technology keeps work moving as quickly and efficiently as possible, so that Port Botany and the wider community will be able to reap the benefits of the expansion sooner rather than later.

CEMEX Mooloolaba Sand Plant Manager Peter Allitt was watching dredges fitted with Trimble HYDROpro GPS positioning system construct channels to tolerances as small as 1cm. He saw potential in introducing the system to his own business and approached Ultimate Positioning, the Trimble dealer in Australia’s southern and eastern states, for advice.

With all piling rigs, it's a challenging task to position the barge and lay anchors, then carry out the final maneuvers to get into its precise position. The Kochi's rotating pile leader and a Trimble GPS based Pile Navigation system speeds this process up and can quickly adapt to handle rake angles for inclined piles. It’s also able to change from the various modes of anchoring, to sheets piling and to conventional piling.

Astrolabe NZ Ltd, a New Zealand marine construction surveying consultancy, were tasked with setting up the precise positioning systems related to the digging of an offshore trench and placement of a 3km long ocean outfall pipeline off Christchurch. With correct GPS calibration, the operation merged hydrographic surveying data as well as the dredging process efficiently and ensured no overdredging or underdredging.
