The Value of Real Time Correction Systems and How They Work

In this presentation, Jim Lahm will introduce the real time correction services available in Oregon, Washington and other regions, in addition to the space-based systems that are available almost everywhere. The ability to receive these corrections eliminates the need to post process field data and provides the user with the security and confidence that they have the required accuracy at that location before they leave the site. These services used to be difficult to access due to lack of infrastructure, but today they are readily available. Learn how to take advantage of these systems wherever you’re working.

Are you frustrated trying to get your high accuracy Trimble receiver integrated into Esri’s data collection apps? Then this session is for you! In this deep dive into the Trimble product configuration guide, Lane and Karissa will educate you on selecting the proper middleware app, GNSS Status or Trimble Mobile Manager, depending on the Esri data collection app, mobile device operating system, and Trimble receiver you will be implementing for your data collection process. We will peek behind the curtains to see how these middleware apps communicate behind the scenes and demonstrate the proper configuration process.

Will explore customer case studies on how the Trimble MX7 mobile mapping workflow has changed asset mapping forever! Capturing 360-degree photos (plus a photo straight up) from a moving vehicle (street or highway speeds) that allows any asset that can be seen in the photo to be extracted with GNSS accuracy of 4” to 12”, plus measure feature attributes: height, width/length, clearance, slope, etc to 1-2cm. One data set can be shared across multiple departments/projects standardizing many workflows, plus creating historical visual layers. Case studies will include: - City wide Broadband project – pre/post construction to collect/compare all existing conditions. - Transit stop and station inventory project – 2,900 bus stops and 40 rail stations - Visual and historical observation of over 1,000 miles of forest burn area in one county. - A counties first GIS including 911 addressing, road centerlines, signs, poles, bridges, culverts and so much more. Plus, customer stories on the next gen MX9 adding LiDAR (up to 2M points per second) and 3mm precision to the photogrammetry data.

We will discuss best practices with Propoint and how to get the most out of it. Attendees will also have an understanding of which GNSS receiver supports this technology.

One of the most frustrating things can be getting a useable corridor model from your design software to Trimble Access for staking. The limited exports available in CAD softwares either do not work properly, or important data is lost. What if we could fix this with TBC and a little basic knowledge about corridor modeling? This session will give a basic foundation of the corridor modeling tool in TBC and show you some simple and easy tools you can use to get an accurate and workable model out to Trimble Access. Knowing some of these basic tools and what type of information you need to get out of your design software will go a long way in helping you be successful in getting the information you need for your next construction project.

This session will focus on GNSS Site Calibration theory and application. Grid to Ground Do’s and Don’ts will be featured along with terminology explanations. In addition we will incorporate real world data, QA/QC scenarios and recent modifications to the legacy Site Calibration routine.

This presentation will introduce you to aerial LiDAR, first with a brief history and overview of the science behind LiDAR, how it compares and contrasts with UAS photogrammetry collection and processing methods, and why it is fast becoming our "go-to" option when we need to collect the most accurate data available. Finally, we'll take you through some actual real-world case studies, and share recommended UAS systems, sensors and processing - as well as our typical end-to-end work flow when utilizing UAS LiDAR in the field

We will explore the creating of Feature Codes in Trimble Access v2020.20 and using them in Trimble Business Center v5.40. We will go through the process of creating a Feature Code Library and how we can manipulate these codes using the Feature Definition Manager for use within TBC and in Trimble Access using the Measure Codes command.

Inspections are a crucial part of planning asset rehabilitation and maintenance. Whether you manage a nuclear power plant, hydroelectric dam, petrochemical plant or other large, complex network of structures, it is likely that you have had to call on divers, confined space professionals and HAZMAT specialists. Utilizing robotics to perform inspection tasks greatly reduces the risk of performing the inspection and increases the convenience if you own the tool yourself. Many companies are now opting to create their own unmanned systems teams. Part of those unmanned systems groups are mini ROVs and pipe crawlers; something global leader Deep Trekker understands in great detail. With this presentation, we will show the real-world applications where robotics have helped these utilities and companies save time and money.

We will explore the stockpile scanning option available in Trimble Access on a TSC7 controller utilizing the Trimble S7 Robotic Total Station.
