Trimble ProjectSight is a Web and mobile solution that streamlines the creation, access and sharing of project information between the office and the jobsite. It also offers SketchUp Viewer for Microsoft HoloLens.
Under its geospatial business, the Company offers services to the construction, engineering, mining, oil and gas, energy and utilities, government and land management sectors. Its solutions include field based data collection systems and field software, real time communications systems and back-office software for data processing, modeling, reporting and analysis. Its field based technologies are used in handheld, land mobile and airborne applications, and incorporate technologies, such as mobile application software, robotic measurement systems, inertial positioning, 3D laser scanning, digital imaging, optical or laser measurement and unmanned aerial vehicles. Its office-based products include software for planning, data processing and editing, quality control, 3D modeling, intelligent data analysis and feature extraction, deformation monitoring, project reporting and data export. It offers a survey instrument, the Trimble SX10 Scanning Total Station. It also offers Trimble Catalyst, a software-defined global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver.
Field Solutions
The Field Solutions segment provides solutions for the farming, government and consumer markets, with its products focused on agriculture and geographic information systems (GIS). The Company's precision agriculture products consist of guidance and positioning systems, automated application systems and information management solutions. It provides manual and automated navigation guidance for tractors and other farm equipment used in spraying, planting, cultivating and harvesting applications. In addition, the Company provides solutions to automate application of pesticide and seeding. It offers MMX-070 tablet under its precision agriculture portfolio. It offers Vertical RTK, a grade control system for agriculture. It offers a technology for irrigation called Irrigate-IQ optimal flow. This technology enables farmers to utilize no-spray areas on center pivot irrigation systems that do not have a variable frequency drive pump, while keeping the pressure regulated across the pivot. In addition to Irrigate-IQ optimal flow, it offers Irrigate-IQ uniform corner, which enables farmers to apply a consistent application in areas covered by the corner arm.
The Company offers Trimble Ag Software solution and coaching advisory services. It also offers Android-based TMX-2050 display platform. Its GIS product line collects authoritative field data and integrates that data into GIS databases. Its handheld data collection systems allow users to log positions and descriptive information about their assets. Through a combination of wireless technologies and software solutions, fieldwork results are delivered to the back-office GIS, and mobile workers can also access GIS information remotely. Primary markets for its GIS products and solutions include both governmental and commercial users.
Mobile Solutions
The Mobile Solutions segment provides solutions that enable end users to monitor and manage their mobile work, mobile workers and mobile assets in the areas of transportation and logistics, and field services management. The Company offers a suite of solutions marketed under the Trimble, PeopleNet, GEOTrac, TMW and ALK Technologies brands in the transportation and logistics market. Together, this range of products provides fleet and transportation management, analytics, routing, mapping, reporting and predictive modeling solution. Its feet productivity and enterprise software offerings include PeopleNet, TMW, Vusion, PC Miler, CoPilot and FleetWorks mobile platforms. The PeopleNet mobile communications system includes solutions encompassing route management, safety and compliance, end-to-end vehicle management and supply chain communications. GEOTrac's telematics systems provide end-to-end solutions for oil and gas road mapping, vehicle monitoring, geofencing, messaging and alerting, driver productivity, distress notification, lone worker monitoring, reporting and maintenance monitoring.
The Company's CarCube/FleetWorks solution is personalized for transportation and logistics companies in Europe and Australia. TMW's transportation software platform serves as a central hub from which the core operations of transportation organizations are managed, data is stored and analyzed, and mission critical business processes are automated.
