Value and specialty systems

Affordable options for specific applications

Maximize your return on investment by deploying targeted positioning power exactly where it is needed. From cost-effective receivers optimized for open, unobstructed work areas, to specialized dual-antenna systems for applications demanding exact heading and attitude measurements — such as dredging, drilling and solar farm piling.

MPS566 Model 2

Work faster and smarter with our dual antenna GNSS heading receiver. This versatile all-in-one system seamlessly transitions between a high-accuracy jobsite base station and an on-machine solution for real-time positioning, heading and attitude monitoring on machines, vessel, or vehicles — backed by advanced connectivity and remote support.

GNSS antennas

The perfect pair for your modular receiver

Complete your system configuration by pairing these high-precision antennas with the modular receiver of your choice. Engineered to track all modern GNSS signals, they excel in high-multipath areas with robust low-elevation satellite tracking and the ability to minimize interference.

Zephyr 3 rugged

Need a high-performance GNSS rover antenna built to withstand high shock and vibration? This ruggedized antenna combines precision with advanced durability and specialized filtering, making it ideal for heavy earthmoving machinery, drilling rigs, marine vessels, cranes and more.

Corrections

GNSS correction sources

Trimble offers GNSS correction services ranging from high-precision RTK base stations and VRS Now to satellite-delivered RTX. Your GNSS operations are only as good as your correction source, it’s important to choose the right one for your business.

Testimonials

Outcomes that inspire confidence

The new Trimble MS976 GNSS antennas are so robust and connect twice as fast as our older models, working effectively in environments where GNSS usually struggles. They’ve been a great addition to our fleet, and we've already ordered more for our new machines.
