Trimble recently announced its Trimble Positions mobile extension for ESRI’s ArcGIS Mobile software. This extension ensures your mobile GIS is only populated with the best quality data. This software suite provides a complete streamlined workflow to manage your GNSS data collection for optimal speed and integrity. It provides the user with the following quality control functions: Integrated synchronization between field and office enables streamlined connections that are quick and efficient, define accuracy requirements to ensure certainty of the location of all assets, use accuracy based logging for the greatest confidence in your data before leaving the field, correct and verify so only qualified data is updated to the GIS. Furthermore, at a single button press, each update adds value making the geodatabase more reliable and useful and all positions are accompanied by Trimble GNSS metadata to track the pedigree and integrity of the data. Trimble Positions also allows the user to reduce complexity in the field by configuring data collectors for consistent results across the whole team. Simple workflows and feedback guide field workers through even the most complex data collection tasks. One can manage the corrections you use—both real time and post-processed via post-processing profiles to efficiently ensure data is of the highest quality every time.
