Welcome Welcome to the winter issue of our new look survey newsletter, Synchronize. The city of Cologne has a long history dating back to Roman times and its cathedral dominates the city centre skyline. This Gothic structure sits close to the Rhine which splits the city of Cologne in two and houses the ‘Shrine of the Three Kings’. So it was under the towering twin spires of this famous Cathedral, on a very warm first week in October, the city of Cologne hosted Intergeo.
Trimble Launches KOREC rounds up the best It’s a busy time of year for Trimble with Intergeo and Trimble Dimensions, and that means it’s a busy time of year for KOREC as well! With so many new releases, we thought we’d give you a quick round up of what’s new for surveying. Trimble Tablet Now Runs Trimble Access for Integrated Surveying
Presented as ‘The world’s leading trade fair for geodesy, geoinformation and land management’, Intergeo is an annual trade show which travels around the cities of Germany. It is always very well supported and this year was no exception with over 17,000 visitors.
n Bright 7-in touch screen – ideal for visual data n Windows 7 Operating System n Two integrated cameras with video capability
The unusually warm weather, combined with the relatively low roof of the exhibition centre, numerous spot-lights illuminating exhibition stands and the number of occupants, made for a ‘hot’ show – literally! As always, the Trimble stand, or booth as it was referred to by the many Trimble employees from across the pond, was a buzz of activity with the theme “Success Found Here”. The Trimble stand was surrounded by the stands of Trimble distributors from Germany making for a forest of yellow and grey instrumentation. There were several product releases and upgrades from Trimble and details of these can be found both in this newsletter and on the KOREC website. Intergeo is always worth a visit; see you next year at Nuremberg? nnn Andrew Beckerson, Director of Sales, KOREC
The Trimble Tablet combines the toughness and portability of a field controller with the operating power and larger interface of a laptop and it’s now available running Trimble Access for Integrated Surveying!
n Integrated GPS for navigation / geotagging photos Surveyors using Trimble Access on the Trimble Tablet can perform tasks not available with other controllers. For example, perform volume calculations in the field and deliver to a client without travelling back to the office. And don’t forget, the large 7-in screen is designed for outdoor use: Clearly view background maps and check work on the vibrant colour graphic display for greater data control, visualisation, and confidence. nnn Trimble’s Tablet with Access Continued inside
