New year is up and running. 2023 has begin with a bang. Even thou there is no big news around Trimble Business Center there is lots of training going on to get ready for the summer season.

Here is the best of the January and February from our Instagram. Its just and office picture since where I am it gets quite cold so more work in side.

Do not forget to check out the Instagram for weekly pics from my survey journey. You can find us @prositeconsulting.

As someone who has spent years working in the surveying industry, I have always been fascinated by new technologies and innovations that are emerging. Throughout my career, I have been fortunate enough to be a part of different groups and communities that are dedicated to exploring and discussing these new developments.

Towards the end of 2022, I received an exciting opportunity that took my interest in new technologies to the next level. I was contacted by a few companies that were based on the other side of the world, which meant that communication and coordination took some effort due to time zone differences. However, the more I learned about these companies, the more excited I became about the potential of our partnership.

I am thrilled to announce that I have now become a survey equipment dealer for two companies: EFIX Geomatics and SINOGNSS. These companies are at the forefront of innovation in the surveying industry, and their product lines cover not only surveying but also machine guidance, agriculture development, and many other areas.

Working with EFIX Geomatics and SINOGNSS allows me to stay on the cutting edge of technology and to offer my clients the latest and most innovative solutions for their surveying needs. I am confident that this partnership will help us all to achieve even greater success and push the boundaries of what is possible in the field of surveying.

As someone who has always been passionate about exploring new technologies and pushing the limits of what is possible, I am excited to be a part of this exciting new venture. I can’t wait to see where this partnership takes us in the future!

Introducing the Small but Powerful EFIX Rover/Base C5

If you are looking for a rover/base that is small but powerful, look no further than the EFIX Rover/Base C5. I had the opportunity to test this out over the past few weeks and I have to say, I was very impressed with it.

One of the things that stood out to me was how easy it was to set up. I was able to get it up and running in no time at all. The precision was also top-notch, which is important when it comes to surveying and mapping.

Despite some unfavourable weather conditions during my testing, the EFIX Rover/Base C5 held up very well. Its compact size made it easy to transport and set up, even in less-than-ideal conditions.

Overall, I highly recommend the EFIX Rover/Base C5 for anyone in need of a reliable and compact rover/base. If you would like more information about this product, please don’t hesitate to contact me. https://prositeconsulting.ca/products/

We will see you soon at the next edition of our newsletter.

As the year 2022 comes to a close here is the final newsletter on this year. At the beginning of this newsletter experiment I mentioned to be an occasional one and here we go number 8 is out. In a few days we will reach 2023 and I cant wait to see what the survey world will brig to us.Did you know we are on INSTAGRAM ? check it out and subscribe to us @prositeconsulting.

Trimble Business Center we have seen quite a bit of stuff with the release of version 5.80 and month later version 5.81. I guess there was a mishap with the printing of true type fonts on version 5.80 which affected lots of us. But only a month later and me redoing all the sheets to printable stroke fonts we got it fixed. Many of you reverted back to the older version until the fix of version 5.81 came. The update was another surprise because it came as a major update with a massive download of 6.6GB.

Now it would not be right to say that there were many improvements which will make our routines easier and better. Mainly the startup time has significantly gone down which everybody appreciates.

Truth to be told I have got myself an early Christmas present, I have build a new beast of a computer. Yes feel free to be jealous.

Trimble Dimension has come and gone. I did not make it this year but heard it was a blast. If you had a privilege to have been there hope you enjoyed it.

We got a new receiver called R780 with the precision 8mm H/15 mm V with 336 Channels

Here are some specs from Trimble’s web page:

• Trimble Maxwell™ 7 GNSS ASIC: Track the latest signals from all GNSS constellations with EVEREST™ Plus multipath mitigation, interference detections, and protection against GNSS spoofing.
• Trimble ProPoint™ technology: Constellation-agnostic, robust positioning engine enables greater accuracy, reliability, and productivity in challenging GNSS environments.
• Trimble TIP™ technology: Survey faster with magnetically immune Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) based tilt compensation that helps you quickly, accurately, and safely stake out or measure points without levelling the pole.
• Trimble CenterPoint RTX: Receive GNSS corrections wherever you are via satellite/IP with unrivaled speed and accuracy for a PPP solution.
• Trimble xFill® technology: Reduce downtime in the field with continuous RTK coverage during correction outages from an RTK base station or VRS network.

In conclusion we had a great innovative year. Cant wait what 2023 will bring. So I want to wish everybody a great and successful new year.

Back after a busy season, as I stated before this is an occasional newsletter. Fall is in the air and the construction season is slowing down as well as temperature in going down.

Trimble Business Center not much news there I believe we are all waiting for the Trimble Dimensions where from history we probably can expect new update. Let see what happens on November 7-9.

You guys know I am big fan of Trimble and there has been quite a few news in regards of the hardware. Last time we took a look at the new Trimble R750 GNSS receiver. If you have watched news Trimble has announced on September 20 2022 new Trimble Ri robotic total station which “offers multiple configurations to meet diverse set of workflows” as per their news release.

Here is a screen shot from Trimble’s website. I this its sexy but that is just me.

On another software note Trimble has acquired B2W and that means coming upgrades to the takeoff module.

Also Trimble has invested into CIV Robotics which makes me exited on what is coming to the survey layout improvements. I can see this being big in the dirt industry! Check them out @ https://www.civrobotics.com/.

In closing to all Canadian friend happy thanksgiving and have a great long weekend.

Hi all SiteMODZ folks. We got through another month of surveying and modelling out there. Mid summer and construction is booming since especially here up North is the season to be working hard.

I personally had a few crazy (actually two) weeks. Everything went sideways and the worst thing is I did not do a great job. I did half ass job on few models and it made me feel very unprofessional. Between work and family sometimes it is hard. There is more and more information I am reading about burning out and seems to find myself almost there. But remember the important thing is to brush up and pick yourself up.

This months most favourite picture was a TSC7 with Trimble S5 total station from one of my jobs house excavation layout.

“Another house done! Beautiful scenery and even better weather!”

Here is an update about our Trimble Business Center user group which was recently renamed due to the Trimble’s request. I want to thank you all for the messages and words of encouragements.

Thank you all for joining our Trimble Business Center user group LinkedIn group where we have grown over 1k subscribers. Keep them coming and lets keep the conversation going. TBC user group on LinkedIN

This month i would like to highlight the Trimble R750modular GNSS receiver. Seems that we are all going mobile. This receiver includes integrate LTE modem so this is all in one solution for your internet base station.

Modular meaning that you only need to purchase the options you need and you can scale at a latter point. I love this since it can keep its price down.

Here is the link to the product page : geospatial.trimble.com/Trimble-R750

So to wrap it up stay healthy and safe out there. Be aware of potential burnout and do not half ass the jobs you get, it just going to bother you going forward.
