Product Details

What is Trimble TerraSync?

Trimble's TerraSync is software for field GIS data collection and maintenance. Trimble® TerraSync™integrates all the ways to collect data—with a GNSS handheld computer, laser rangefinder, or centimeter grade equipment—it is a system for the collection of high quality feature and position data for GIS update and maintenance. Working in Trimble QuickPoint™ data collection mode GIS point features can be collected with a press of a button, a tap of the screen, or point-and-shoot operation of a Trimble laser rangefinder. Trimble TerraSync software enables the incorporation of photo capture into the data collection workflow using a Trimble handheld with integrated camera.

Trimble TerraSync software also includes the ability to use data dictionaries previously created in Trimble GPS Pathfinder® Office software or Trimble Positions™ Desktop add-in, based on the enterprise GIS. A data dictionary allows field workers to create features and assign attribute values that not only comply with the GIS data structure, but also preserve data integrity.

Trimble TerraSync has become a trusted and reliable software for field work, with users relying on it for various applications over the years. One of the key use cases is updating base maps at a scale of 1:25k and collecting feature attributes for GIS projects. Users have found that the software simplifies this process, allowing them to efficiently input sample labels with GPS locations for easy identification and analysis of parcel boundaries, infrastructure projects, and other geographical surveys.

Another important business problem solved by TerraSync is the integration of high-quality geospatial field data with existing GIS systems. Users appreciate how the software streamlines field work by collecting and organizing GIS data in one place, eliminating the need for manual data transfer and entry. This not only saves time but also improves the overall quality of field data collection. Additionally, TerraSync is praised for its user-friendly interface and accurate data capture, making it a preferred choice for navigation purposes such as identifying photo ground control points and signalization. Overall, users have found that TerraSync provides an inexpensive and effective solution for updating city and county GIS maps, construction data collection, and other field work tasks, resulting in accurate data collection and analysis.

Users commonly recommend the following actions in relation to TerraSync enabled GPS tools:

  1. Compare with other software options: Users advise comparing TerraSync with other software options before making a purchase decision, particularly considering factors like customer support and regional availability. This approach allows users to make an informed choice that best suits their needs.

  2. Try the software first: Users suggest trying out the software first to ensure it meets their specific requirements. By experimenting with the software before buying, users can evaluate its functionality and determine if it aligns with their expectations.

  3. Request a sales demo or presentation: Users recommend requesting a sales demo or presentation from the provider to better understand the software's capabilities. This allows users to gain insight into how the software functions and whether it is suitable for their intended use.

It is worth noting that while some users find the price of TerraSync a bit high, they generally find the software easy to use, with minimal glitches or defects. However, some users caution that satellite reception or multi-path issues can impact the product's performance on the TerraSync enabled device.
