New instruments for high precision land surveying arrive at UCD

UCD have received two Trimble R12i GNSS receivers. These state of the art instruments for high precision land surveying, positioning and navigation were acquired through the UCD Equip scheme with co-funding from iCRAG. The proposal to the Equip scheme was led by Dr Jonathan Turner with support from colleagues across a number of other schools in UCD, including Architecture, Civil Engineering, and Archaeology. Guiding the UCD team in operating the receivers is Eoin O'Connell of KOREC group, the distributor for Trimble in the UK and Ireland. 

The two newly-arrived Trimble R12i GNSS receivers being trialled by staff and students from UCD School of Earth Sciences and UCD School of Geography
