Trimble's TerraSync software gives field technicians the ability to update GIS (Geographic Information System) data in real time. The application can tap into a mobile receiver's GNNS (Global Navigation Satellite System) radio, and then download corrected geographic differentials into a field computer. If you use TerraSync in the field and you need to manually input GIS data, the application also provides a solution for entering user-defined coordinates.
Instructions
1. Tap on your device's "Start" button, and then tap on the "TerraSync" heading in the "Start" menu.
2. Tap on the "Section" button's arrow, and then select its "Map" option. The "Section" button is TerraSync's uppermost button. The button bears the name of whatever section you're currently browsing.
3. Tap on the "Options" button, and then select the "Enter Coordinates" option from the context menu that drops down below the heading.
4. Tap inside of the "Latitude," "Longitude" and "Altitudes" fields. Use the onscreen keyboard to key in the appropriate coordinates for each of the fields.
5. Tap "Done" to plot your coordinates.
