Freedom To Work Your Way

Rugged, all-in-one- solution

Compact and Durable: Lightweight, easy-to-use design with exceptional strength and virtually indestructible construction.
Tilt Compensation: Simplifies site positioning for new users while saving time and costs for experienced operators.
Ultra-Rugged Receiver: The toughest receiver Trimble has built, reducing downtime on challenging job sites.
Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Accuracy: Provides high-precision site measurements with reliable RTK corrections.
Enhanced GNSS Performance: Access to more satellites improves productivity, uptime, and accuracy, even in difficult conditions such as dense tree cover or urban environments.
Use the eBubble to see the verticality of the receiver in Trimble FieldLink Software instead of on the rod bubble for more efficient surveying, especially in low light conditions

Tilt compensation

Using the R780 and Trimble FieldLink Software it is now possible to capture accurate points while standing, walking or driving the site in a vehicle, while the receiver is not level.
Full GNSS tilt compensation makes FieldLink easier to learn for beginners and saves significant time for more experienced contractors.

Easily and safely survey hard to reach areas (corners, traffic lanes, utility flowlines)
Faster measurements
More efficient stake-outs
No magnetic interference

It has never been so easy to survey. Initial site work and topos can even be done base station-free using satellite-delivered GNSS corrections to the rover.

Flexibility
The R780’s compact design allows quick setup from carrying case to range pole, tripod, T-bar, or vehicle with a single click, helping you get to work faster.

Trimble ProPoint Technology
Trimble ProPoint™ GNSS leverages all available signals to deliver survey-grade positioning in challenging environments where other GNSS systems may fail or provide unreliable results.

Trimble xFill Technology
Trimble xFill® seamlessly bridges gaps in RTK or VRS connections, maintaining high-accuracy positioning and boosting site productivity even in areas where GNSS corrections were previously unavailable.
