A practical guide to how positioning software, field data and connected machinery reshape surveying, construction and mining work.
Positioning Technologies Podcast turns specialized field technology into a brisk two-voice explainer. Trimble Mobile Manager, Trimble Access and Trimble Business Center become practical systems rather than feature inventories, with the hosts repeatedly asking how positioning…
Even a bent survey pole gets a calibration detour when your idea of 'close enough' means centimeters.

Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.
AI and connected workflows make geospatial data faster to classify, cleaner to use, and easier to turn into practical value.
Geospatial software is usually treated as a precision tool, but this episode puts the emphasis on throughput: how Trimble Business Center is being updated to help users move from data to decisions more quickly.
A clear look at how software-first trucking could matter for fleets and drivers.
Platform Science's acquisition of Trimble's transportation telematics businesses reads as a straightforward bet on software-first trucking, and the piece makes that case without getting lost in jargon.
A clear case for why satellite positioning matters beyond consumer navigation.
GNSS is framed as more than phone navigation: a working infrastructure with clear stakes for construction, agriculture, cities, aviation, and shipping.
Mining monitoring gets a practical systems view, not a glossy product tour.
This episode treats mining safety as a connected system, with GroundProbe and Trimble framed around slope stability monitoring. It makes a specialized subject easy to follow, moving from monitoring tools to connected data to an integrated mine workflow in plain language.
A clear, brisk look at how Trimble frames precision, calibration, and workflow changes in UAV mapping.
Direct georeferencing makes UAV mapping feel less like a niche technical process and more like a practical way to remove friction from precision work.
A grounded explanation of how visible pavement damage becomes an engineering score.
The episode makes pavement assessment feel concrete by tying road damage to the systems used to judge it. It follows PCI back to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, then walks through the 0-to-100 scale, distress types, severity levels, and deduct values that turn visible wear…
Trimble Mobile Manager links GNSS accuracy to the apps field teams already use.
Trimble Mobile Manager is presented as a practical bridge between Trimble GNSS receivers and the phone and tablet apps people already use. The app is free on Android and iOS, and the review keeps its attention on the part that matters most: getting centimeter-level position data…
A business list episode that treats sustainability as a working metric, not a slogan.
Inc.com's Best in Business 2024 list reads as a clean look at success when impact matters as much as revenue. It does its best work with Trumbull Inc., where hardware, software, and services are tied back to construction, agriculture, and transportation without much fuss.
Film craft for the VFX workbench.
Accessibility, veterans, and practical independence explained clearly.
Host Jack Rhysider narrates true hacking, breach, and privacy stories from the people involved.
David Pierce and Verge staffers cover AI industry news, gadgets, and tech policy weekly.
Long-form interviews on AI coding agents, infrastructure, and security, plus a recurring SED News roundup.
Founders and engineers on AI coding agents like Claude Code, and supply chain security.
This episode analyzes how the latest version of Trimble Business Center (TBC) uses connected workflows and artificial intelligence to revolutionize geospatial data processing.
Big trucking news, kept plain.
This episode explores the critical and often overlooked role of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) in modern business ecosystems and society.
Slope stability is the starting point.
This episode provides a deep dive into Trimble's new direct georeferencing portfolio for UAV mapping, explaining how the technology combines GNSS, IMUs, and sensor fusion to achieve centimeter-level accuracy from drones.
This episode explores the Pavement Condition Index (PCI), a standardized system for assessing road and pavement surface conditions.
Impact leads the list.
Trimble Mobile Manager is the handoff.
Bryn Fosberg, a 40-year geospatial industry veteran and senior VP at Trimble, discusses the digital transformation sweeping his field, offering nuanced perspectives on AI's role as an enabler rather than driver, warning about AI hallucinations, and emphasizing the continued importance of human oversight and traditional surveying principles alongside technologies like BIM and digital twins.
Trimble Access is introduced as a broad software suite for spatial work.
This episode provides a comprehensive deep dive into Trimble's University Partnership Program (TUPP), which offers educational institutions significant discounts on professional-grade positioning technology.
This episode provides a deep dive into the Trimble DA2, a next-generation GNSS receiver, explaining how its multi-frequency capability, ProPoint technology, and Catalyst subscription service deliver sub-meter to centimeter accuracy for applications in surveying, agriculture, construction, and future technologies like autonomous vehicles.
This episode provides a detailed technical deep dive into the Trimble R980 GNSS system, explaining its advanced features like multi-constellation support, calibration-free tilt compensation, worldwide centimeter-level accuracy, and rugged design.
This episode explores Trimble Business Center's AI-powered features for processing spatial data, including dynamic filtering, classification, and extraction of infrastructure elements like signs and lanes.
Trimble Access gets a broad update.
Trimble Business Center is presented as software for turning drone, scanner, and GPS data into something people can actually use.
The episode looks at mobile mapping and Trimble Business Center workflows.
This episode explores how AI, BIM, and AR are transforming geospatial and construction industries, based on Dennis Belgrado's presentation at the GeoWorld conference.
This episode explores Trimble Business Center (TBC), a software platform for processing aerial photogrammetry and LIDAR data.
This episode provides a detailed comparison of Trimble RealWorks software editions, explaining features from Viewer to Storage Tank and their real-world applications in design, surveying, and inspection.
This episode explores a geotechnical monitoring project on Brisbane's Story Bridge, where engineers used Trimble laser sensors and total stations to detect minute movements during nearby construction.
The hosts start with a plain fieldwork problem: physical barriers that make data hard or unsafe to reach.
This episode explores Trimble FieldLink software, a construction technology that bridges digital designs with physical construction sites.
This episode explores how Trimble's TBC Mining software revolutionizes the mining industry by integrating tools for surveyors, geologists, and engineers into a single platform.
This episode explores Trimble Connect AR, an augmented reality software for construction that overlays digital models on job sites to prevent errors and enhance collaboration.
The episode walks through Trimble's machine control and guidance systems.
