Trimble has introduced two new positioning portfolios for mobile mapping and direct georeferencing — Applanix POS LVX+ and Applanix POS AVX RTX — suitable for land-based and aerial mobile mapping applications.

Both include a one-year subscription to the Trimble CenterPoint RTX correction service and Applanix POSPac Complete (desktop and cloud), which includes post-processed CenterPoint RTX (POSPac PP-RTX).

By integrating real-time and post-processed data, users can achieve global coverage without the need for traditional GNSS base stations. Both systems support Trimble IonoGuard technology for advanced mitigation against ionospheric disruptions.

The POS LVX+ portfolio, available in six models, offers:

  • Incorporation of the Applanix IN-Fusion+ multi-sensor-aided inertial engine, which maintains performance in challenging environments such as urban canyons or tree canopies.
  • Suitability for projects using LiDAR sensors or cameras, as well as for fleet management and automotive applications.
  • Onboard and external IMUs.
  • Customised for airborne positioning and orientation.

The Applanix POS AVX RTX portfolio has four variants for mapping at different flying altitudes, and features:

  • Over-the-air correction technology that achieves positioning, velocity and orientation accuracy of up to 3 cm horizontal RMS and 6 cm vertical RMS without any additional setup or infrastructure.
  • IMUs and an FAA-certified antenna and cabling.
  • The combination of real-time and post-processed RTX correction data.
