Dedicated to GIS data collection
Trimble Pro series receivers are built to withstand the rigors of long hours in tough outdoor conditions yet optimized for high-accuracy GIS data collection workflows. The integrated antenna reduces the complexity of the complete system for fast setup and swift data collection campaigns. Field workers can be up and running with minimal training saving time and money.
Trimble Pro series receivers improve GNSS productivity with Trimble Floodlight™ technology for improved satellite availability and Trimble H-Star™ technology for high-accuracy data logging. The Trimble Pro series can deliver down to decimeter accuracy—either postprocessed or in real time for the confidence the job is done right while still on site. Using Trimble TerraSync™ software or Trimble Positions™ Mobile extension in the field or other GIS-centric field workflows, Trimble Pro receivers are designed to deliver attribute-rich field data quickly and easily.
Stay out of the shadows with Trimble Floodlight
For maximum productivity in high-accuracy applications, Trimble Floodlight technology lets you take high-accuracy data collection into the toughest GNSS environments. Trees and buildings create "satellite shadows", limiting the areas where you can reliably collect high-accuracy GNSS data. Using Floodlight technology, the Pro series keeps your teams productive without reducing accuracy. Work with fewer disruptions and ensure better data, faster data collection and higher field efficiency.
Flexible to fit with the way you work
With your preferred configuration, choice of real-time or postprocessed workflows, decimeter or submeter accuracy-levels, and optional Floodlight technology—with Trimble Pro series receivers you can work productively how and where you need to.

1. Accuracy and reliability may be subject to anomalies due to multipath, obstructions, satellite geometry, and atmospheric conditions. Always follow recommended GNSS data collection practices. Specified Centimeter accuracy can normally be achieved for baselines of 30 km or less. Specified H-Star accuracy can normally be achieved for baseline lengths of 100 km or less. Centimeter and H-Star accuracy is typically achieved within 2 minutes. Carrier postprocessed accuracy is limited to data collected within 10 km of the base station used for corrections.
2. SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System). Includes WAAS; available in North America only, EGNOS; available in Europe only and MSAS; available in Japan only.
3. Actual run time will vary with conditions and environment of use.
4. Bluetooth type approvals are country specific. Pro series receivers have Bluetooth approval in the U.S. and in most European countries. For further information please consult your local reseller.
