2373 Spectra Precision is introducing its sophisticated ProMark 700 system, a GNSS network RTK rover aimed at duties in land survey applications. The unit weighs in at only 650grammes and is said to be the lightest GNSS RTK smart antenna available on the market. Its light weight, together with its compact and slim design, makes the unit the receiver portable and comfortable for field use. It features a long battery life, a rugged, waterproof design and a wide operating temperature range, allowing the ProMark 700 to be used in harsh outdoor environments. The new receiver is equipped with 220 dual-frequency and dual-constellation GNSS channels that allow tracking of all available L1/L2 GPS/GLONASS satellite signals. It provides features for effective network RTK operations, without rarely-used modules or options. In addition, the ProMark 700 has been designed as an intuitive, simple and easy-to-use receiver, where all operations are performed from the data collector. Due to their size and light weight, the perfect companions to ProMark 700 are the low-cost MM10 data collector or the new T41 data collector with a smart phone design. The ProMark 700 receiver can be used with Spectra Precision field software: either Survey Pro v5.2.1 or FAST Survey v3.1. Both field software applications provide a complete set of features that meet the demanding expectations of professional surveyors and are optimised for RTK network surveys.
Trimble says that it is increasing the capabilities of its integrated GNSS survey receiver range. This line-up includes the Trimble R4, Trimble R6, Trimble R8 GNSS systems and is rounded out by the latest Trimble R10 GNSS System. The new improvements being added include increased satellite tracking and Real Time Kinematic (RTK) performance. These modernise the integrated receiver portfolio to add functionality, flexibility and capability as well as providing more options for surveyors.
