Welcome to GPS Education Resource, your GPS Training Headquarters

  • GPS Education Resource is a GPS training and consulting company specializing in "teaching the finer points of GPS."  

  • We provide certified training on Trimble Mapping Systems, focusing on GIS data capture applications.  

  • ArcPad 8 is now here!  There are also new versions of GPScorrect 3.01 and TerraSync 4.01 now available.  Go to our Current Versions page to download.  These new software versions require additional registration steps.  Click here for instructions on how to install and register.  The Support Note applies to both TerraSync and GPScorrect.  Special Note: there is not a single enhancement or bug fix in these new software versions, after TerraSync v3.30 and GPScorrect v2.42.  If you have these versions, there is no need to upgrade at this time (6-4-2009). 

  • If you are using a Trimble 2008 Geo Series handheld to connect to a Trimble VRS or Leica IMAX server to obtain GPS corrections through your AT&T Bluetooth cell phone, you must read this document.  If you are using a Trimble 2005 Geo Series, you must read this document.  If you have questions, you can email Jim Lahm for details.

  • For those new to VRS (Virtual Reference Station) concepts, take a look at this document released by Trimble.  It explains the benefits of how VRS can work for you.

 Introducing the new Trimble® ProXRT receiver!

Trimble ProXRT real time decimeter system for GPS training

The GPS Pathfinder ProXRT receiver brings Trimble H-Star technology to the field in real time; just connect to a real-time correction source and you can collect decimeter (10 cm) to subfoot (30 cm) positions, both horizontally and vertically, in the field. Simply use a wireless link to your local VRS™ network, or set up your own base station for the flexibility to work wherever you need to.

Trimble ProXRT real time decimeter system for GPS trainingAlternatively, OmniSTAR HP can be used to achieve real-time decimeter accuracy. The OmniSTAR antenna is integrated so there’s no need to carry any extra equipment— just purchase a subscription and wait for the over the air corrections. The GPS Pathfinder ProXRT receiver is also capable of using the OmniSTAR XP (20 cm accuracy) and VBS (instantaneous submeter accuracy) services.

The ProXRT requires TerraSync Professional 3.20 or later, or GPScorrect extension for ArcPad 2.40 or later.  Post processing can be done with Pathfinder Office 4.10 or later, or GPS Analyst 2.10 or later with all updates installed.
