Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) announced today it has formed a new industry solutions group within its Mapping & GIS Division. The new group, known as the Market Solutions Team, will work with strategic customers in key industries such as utilities, natural resources, transportation and municipal government to develop advanced data use solutions for field workers involved in the collection, management and utilization of geospatial information.
Over the last 30 years, Trimble has developed a portfolio of market-leading hardware and software products focused on the field data collection of fixed assets using Global Positioning System (GPS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) technology. Today, the success of these products has led to the need for a complementary set of solutions for an ever-growing number of field workers who leverage those assets in their daily business operations.
