From May 19-21, 2025, our
Survey Instruments Division provided a
Trimble R980 Training Course for Aerothai officers focusing on high-precision GNSS Topographic Surveying. The course began with a theoretical session, followed by hands-on training using the Trimble R980 in both Base mode and Rover mode alongside their existing Trimble GNSS receivers, which were fully compatible.
One interesting point of the Trimble R980 is its ability to track satellite signals more accurately and faster compared to the previous models because the Trimble R980 has more channels, the ability to track all the GNSS constellations, and includes many advanced technologies, including:
- IonoGuard™ - mitigate the ionospheric GNSS signal disruptions.
- Trimble ProPoint™ - improve accuracy and productivity in challenging GNSS conditions.
- IMU-base tilt allows users to collect accurate positions even if the pole is tilted.
