Trimble R780 GNSS Smart Antenna

The Trimble R780 GNSS Smart Antenna is a versatile, high-performance solution designed to deliver unmatched accuracy and durability for construction, surveying, and machine control. With integrated Tilt Compensation technology, the R780 ensures that you can collect precise data without the need to level the pole, making work faster, safer, and more efficient—even in the toughest environments.

Whether you need a rover for grade checking or a base station for larger operations, the Trimble R780 is engineered to adapt to your needs. Its rugged design, advanced GNSS technology, and flexibility make it the go-to choice for professionals looking to maximise productivity and reduce downtime.

The Tilt Compensation feature allows you to capture accurate measurements with the Trimble R580 even when the receiver isn’t level, improving both speed and safety on-site. This feature makes it easier to work in areas where it’s difficult to level the pole, such as steep slopes or hard-to-reach locations.

• Faster, safer data collection on any terrain
• No need to constantly adjust the receiver for accuracy
• Perfect for working in difficult or dangerous locations

The Trimble R780 is built to withstand harsh environments. Its shockproof, weather-resistant design minimises downtime by reducing the need for frequent repairs, ensuring consistent, reliable performance across diverse construction and survey conditions.

The Trimble R780 functions as both a GNSS rover system and a base station, providing flexibility for a wide range of applications. With dual-band radio (450 MHz and 900 MHz) and multiple mounting options, the R780 is designed to move seamlessly between different tasks and project types.

• Switch easily between rover and base station modes
• Dual-band radio for mixed fleet operations
• Multiple mounting options (range pole, tripod, vehicle, etc.)

The Trimble ProPoint GNSS technology delivers superior positioning accuracy, even in challenging environments such as urban canyons or under tree cover. By processing all available GNSS signals, ProPoint minimises rework and enhances overall efficiency on job sites.

With Trimble xFill, productivity continues even when GNSS corrections are interrupted or unavailable, such as in obstructed environments. This technology bridges the gap, allowing crews to keep working without disruptions and maximising site efficiency.

Included with the R780 for the first 12 months, Trimble CenterPoint RTX provides RTK-level accuracy globally, without requiring a base station. This satellite and internet-based correction service is ideal for quick, cost-effective, and precise measurements in both small and large projects.

The Trimble AutoBase feature simplifies the setup of the base station, automatically establishing RTK connections. This saves time and reduces configuration hassle, allowing crews to spend more time on productive tasks, especially in large or complex job sites.

When paired with the Trimble Siteworks Positioning System, the Trimble R780 provides real-time, highly accurate data collection. It allows for fast and safe capture of accurate points, even in challenging environments, using its Tilt Compensation feature. From site measurement to quality control, the R780 ensures reliable results every time.

In rover mode, the Trimble R780 supports a range of site measurement tasks, such as pole-mounted grade checking, ATV-mounted progress monitoring, and vehicle-mounted supervision. With CenterPoint RTX, it offers RTK-level accuracy without a base station, ideal for initial reconnaissance. For higher precision, RTK corrections can be received via integrated Wi-Fi or dual-band radio.

As a base station, the R780 provides robust communication across sites. Its integrated Wi-Fi handles smaller projects, while its dual-band radio (450/900 MHz) ensures long-range operation for large-scale jobs. Thanks to Trimble AutoBase, setting up a connection is fast and simple, giving teams more time to focus on work.

The Trimble R780 GNSS Smart Antenna uses advanced GNSS technology to deliver exceptional accuracy and performance, even in challenging environments like tree canopy or congested construction sites. It supports:

• GNSS constellations: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS, BeiDou
• Correction services: CenterPoint RTX, RTK via base station, UHF radio, Wi-Fi, or internet
• Augmentation systems: SBAS (WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS, QZSS)
• Additional technologies: Trimble ProPoint, xFill, Virtual Reference Station (VRS), and Trimble Internet Base Station Service (IBSS)
