The Trimble® GeoExplorer® 6000 series takes GNSS productivity to a whole new level. Bringing together the essential functionality for high-accuracy field work in one device, the GeoXH™ handheld delivers real-time decimeter
(10 cm / 4 inch) accuracy positioning, high quality photo capture, and integrated Internet connectivity options. Together with the latest field software enhancements and GNSS innovations—including Trimble Floodlight™ satellite shadow reduction technology—the GeoXH handheld establishes a new standard for GNSS system performance and handheld data capture.

For utility companies, municipalities, environmental management agencies, and many other organisations, timely accurate information is paramount to good decision making. The GeoXH handheld is the best high accuracy hardware platform for any organization needing to map information at decimeter (10 cm / 4 inch) accuracy.

In conjunction with a Trimble Mapping & GIS field software application or a custom application developed by a Trimble Mapping & GIS Business Partner, the GeoXH handheld is the ideal platform for:

• Utilities: Underground asset mapping and inspection, water network modelling, as-built mapping of lines/cable installations, and incident/outage reporting.
• Local government: High-density urban asset mapping, underground asset relocation, municipal asset inventory and inspection.
• Environmental management: Weed management, water debris management, pollution mapping, environmental incident mapping, sample gathering, agricultural subsidy determination.

The GeoXH handheld is an ideal solution in any industry requiring a mobile decimeter accuracy mapping data collection and maintenance solution.

The GeoXH handheld is equipped with a 220 channel GNSS receiver capable of tracking GPS and GLONASS satellites together with an integrated dual-frequency (L1/L2) GNSS antenna. In conjunction with Trimble field software, the GeoXH handheld uses Trimble H-Star™ technology to deliver decimeter accuracy in the field, eliminating the need for back-office postprocessing, and giving the confidence that the job is done right while still on site.

With Trimble Floodlight satellite shadow reduction technology, the GeoXH handheld receiver can compute positions even with very weak satellite signals. Floodlight technology increases the number of positions that are gathered in difficult locations, and boosts accuracy in those places where normally only low accuracy data is available. With the GeoXH handheld, field crews can now work with fewer disruptions, meaning better data, faster, at less cost.

The GeoXH handheld is fully supported by the latest versions of Trimble field software, which include seamless out-of-the-box receiver configuration and Smart Settings. Using Smart Settings, the GNSS receiver can calculate the optimal accuracy each second without imposing strict masks, and without sacrificing productivity. There is no need to adjust settings from one location to the next—simply activate Smart Settings, and let the receiver do the rest.

The GeoXH handheld includes a sunlight-optimized display designed specifically for outdoor operation. It maintains exceptional clarity in all outdoor conditions, including direct sunlight. Text is crisp and easy to read. Background maps and photos are rich and vibrant. At 4.2" (10.7 cm), the display is also big, so the touch panel is spacious and easier to control.

A photo is often the best way to capture information about an asset, event, or site. The GeoXH handheld includes a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with geotagging capability. The camera can be controlled by the TerraSync™ software and other third-party applications, so photo capture and linking of images to GIS features is seamless and simple to integrate with existing data capture workflows.

With the GeoXH handheld, wireless connectivity options including cellular, Wi-Fi®, and Bluetooth® technology ensure that field workers can remain in contact with the office and each other, even from remote locations. An optional integrated 3.5G cellular modem allows continuous network and Internet access to real-time map data, web-based services, VRS™ corrections, and live update of field information. Bluetooth technology also enables wireless connection to other external devices such as Bluetooth-enabled laser range finders, barcode scanners, or underground pipe locators.

The GeoXH handheld is powered by a super-fast OMAP-3503 series processor and 256 MB RAM. With 2 GB of internal storage and the capacity to add an additional 32 GB via SDHC card, the GeoXH handheld has the capacity and power needed to work with high resolution maps and the most complex datasets.

The Lithium-Ion battery can provide up to 10 hours of GNSS operation on a single charge and can be swapped on-the-go without shutting down the device—enabling near-continuous operation and minimizing field worker downtime.

Powered by Windows Mobile® 6.5 Professional edition, the GeoXH handheld is fully compatible with the latest releases of Trimble Mapping & GIS field software as well as a large variety of third-party data collection and maintenance applications.

The fully ruggedized IP65 construction is designed to withstand the toughest treatment. Wherever field workers go, they can take the GeoXH handheld with the confidence that the equipment can handle the toughest conditions.
