"FLISR is a tool that allows us to make better use of the investments we have made in our power grid."
“LOADRITE was as accurate as the weigh bridge. In fact LOADRITE weighed the most consistent weight compared to the weigh bridge and truck scales.”
“The e-Builder tool has brought excellent value to WASD customers while propelling Miami-Dade County and our utility to the forefront of public agencies implementing web-based project management systems!”
"The decision to equip our heavy equipment with Trimble grade control systems reflected a will to maximize the use of the equipment in order to save time in scheduling and achieve savings."
“The SCS900 software is intuitive and designed for the construction site.”
“eCognition, with remote sensing data, is the most powerful tool for detecting and analyzing landslides.”
“Instead, we were able to use the excavator with the Trimble GCS900 to start excavating to a level from day one. There was no banksman to aid the driver, which provided even more savings and safety on the site. We finished in just three weeks and saved almost 25% of time in digging because we weren’t always waiting to check the excavating position and volumes.”
“With eCognition, I can quickly assess the quality of the datasets that I’m working with, tweak the rule sets accordingly, and the software does the rest.”
“We’ve been able to map about 80 percent of the most valuable solar markets at one-meter resolution, That’s connected us to valuable markets such as California, Massachusetts and Connecticut, states that we wouldn’t have been able to do business in had we not been able to extract features automatically.”
"The total station provides an accuracy of one centimeter, which enables us to grade these winding pathways both quickly and accurately. It took us a day and a half for executing a kilometer instead of three to four days if we had had used stakes and string."
"The machines work on the site without any stakes, which represents both savings in personnel, increased safety because there is no-one walking around at the foot of the machine, not to mention significant time savings."
"All the shapes, especially the more complex ones like the reverse spiral in the garden of sounds, the slopes on the viewpoint mound, etc. were handled using the bulldozer."
“We want to get 29 tonnes on each truck, getting 27 or 28 means it takes another trip, or two, to unload the barge and that adds on another 20-40 minutes to the discharge of the vessel.”
“I used Trimble Business Center - HCE to build all of the models and keep track of my data going back and forth between machines and data collectors. We had two of our batch plants set up on the job that produced 253 truckloads of material per day, which is more than 100,000 man hours in total.”
"Going forward, from a management point of view, when you're short on labor-which is an absolute consistency today-you can implement Trimble SPS930 Universal Total Station, and you'll have more confidence in quantities, in pricing, in timing, and in labor costs. If we can have 5 to 10 millimeters more accuracy in our materials purchasing and utilization, that's thousands of dollars saved per road; it can take a project from breaking even to making a profit."
