Hi,

The Trimble GeoCE series runs a different CE operating system (HPC2000)
than the one MapX Mobile supports (PocketPC2002). In the last couple of
weeks Trimble has released a CE.NET version (with integrated Bluetooth)
but we will have to wait for MapInfo to release a CE.NET version of MapX
mobile. Trimble have also released a .NET update to their GPS Pathfinder
Tools SDK.

The GPScorrect extension for ArcPad logs positions into a SSF file
(Trimble proprietary file) and when you process the data later, using
time stamps, updates the positions in the shape file.

We have done a beta version of MapX mobile with Trimble
interconnectivity for the iPaq but unfortunately most of the ruggedised
devices run HPC2000 or CE.NET so hopefully MapInfo will come out with
CE.NET version soon. We await with baited breath.....

Hi list,

Anyone out there built a MapX mobile app to run on the Trimble GeoXT
(CE) series GPS units?  Trimble has their own data capture software
called Terrasynch, and you can get an optional ArcPad install that
utilizes another Trimble software called GPS Correct that links the GPS
signal into the ArcPad.  Looking for this same sort of setup using MapX
mobile if anyone has built it...

Thanks
