Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
Engineering Services owned two Trimble R8 Global Network Satellite Systems, both purchased in 2005. One unit was replaced in 2020, the second unit can no longer be repaired and has been deemed obsolete by the manufacture. The Trimble R12 has the ability to track three times the satellites as the current survey system along with the ability to connect to satellites in dense and wooded areas, which will allow surveys to be completed expediently, and with more accuracy.
