Trimble Recon XC

Best value ultra-rugged handheld with integrated GPS

The Trimble Recon GPS XC edition provides the same rugged, weatherproof performance you've come to expect from the Trimble Recon handheld, and because it's so easy to use and affordable, it's an ideal solution for utility companies, government organizations, and natural resource agencies that are managing large deployments and tight budgets.

The Trimble Recon handheld includes built-in Bluetooth wireless technology and wireless LAN, to connect to a range of peripherals or to a wireless LAN to send or receive data. The built-in wireless LAN can also be used with TrimPix™ technology to connect to a range of Wi-Fi capable Nikon digital cameras for automated capture of digital images. Download the TrimPix technology software, and you can take photos with your high resolution camera and easily send them wirelessly to your handheld.

The system has been specifically designed to provide positions in hostile environments, such as under forest canopy or up against buildings. If you need better accuracy than you can achieve autonomously, you can postprocess your data, a capability that is lacking in most other CompactFlash GPS cards. You'll get reliable 2 to 5 meter accuracy and the ability to control the quality and consistency of your data.

Because the Trimble Recon GPS XC edition comes with the industry standard Windows Mobile® operating system, you get all the benefits of an open platform for mobile devices. You can run the software that best suits your application, whether off-the-shelf or purpose built.

The Trimble Recon GPS XC edition is compatible with Trimble software solutions for GIS data collection and maintenance. And because it's a Trimble solution, you have a single point of contact for service and support, taking the hassle out of owning your equipment. You can rest assured you have the quality and reliability that Trimble represents.
