Announcing the New NetR9 Base Station for GIS Mapping Applications

Base station for GPS training

Key features:

  • Proven GNSS technology from Trimble
  • 440 channels for unparalleled GNSS multiple constellation tracking performance
  • Bluetooth, Ethernet, Serial and USB support
  • Large internal memory plus external USB device logging capacity
  • Convenient front panel display and configuration
  • Powerful built-in remote management tools
  • Rugged and field tested for even the harshest environmental conditions

We currently rent and sell this unit complete with software and accessories allowing you to set up your own local GPS-GLONASS base station to insure you have the necessary base files to post process your field data.  If you cannot find a GPS-GLONASS base station in your area, this is the solution; perfect to provide base files for the Trimble Geo6000 Series.  This unit can also be used to provide real time corrections by simply connecting this receiver to the Internet.  You can then access the data stream by logging into an IP address through a cell modem connection or Wi-Fi in the field.
