THE GPS SOLUTION

While GPS has brought remarkable precision to global navigation, some marine applications demand even greater accuracy. That's why we pioneered the effort to bring differential GPS (DGPS) onto the water and into the hands of commercial and recre- ational mariners. And why we designed our DGPS to the most rigorous performance standards. As a result of that commitment, we've sold more DGPS beacons and Integrity Monitors than anyone else. The U.S.

Coast Guard chose our Integrity Monitors to ensure the accuracy of its DGPS network. Trimble DGPS is revolutionizing coastal navigation in the United

Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, Germany, Norway,

Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Bermuda, Iceland,

Brazil, Venezuela, Korea, Hong Kong, and The

People's Republic of China. So we're proud to

DGPS around the world:

Trimble technology is the popular choice among those patrolling the world's coast- lines. Along with other

NATO countries, Norway has chosen Trimble DGPS, equipping many of its auxil- iary warships with our

NT200Ds. And the British

Ministry of Defense (MOD) uses our NT200s to guide them in precise placement of harbor moorings. Trimble is also the DGPS of choice among officials of the world's most prestigious yacht race, who named

DGPS was also the favorite of America's Cup '95 com- petitors, all of whom had

Trimble receivers onboard. spares you the time and trouble of buying, installing and connecting a separate differential box and antenna. This in turn saves you space and enhances your navigation system's reliability.

Which helps explain why the U.S. Coast Guard uses the NT200D series to place the 50,000+ navigation aids on America's waterways.
