Highlights this month: a new Trimble Access update, the launch of SURVEY61 on WingtraRAY, upcoming training events, and a GNSS receiver survey shaping future product development.

The surveying world is shifting fast in 2026, and Trimble's team of experts has pinpointed six trends you'll want to know about.  Reality capture isn't just for specialized firms anymore, it's becoming something any surveying company can use.  At the same time, common data environments are finally catching on across the industry, giving you a central place to store everything from design files to as-built data instead of having information scattered everywhere.  Add in smarter autonomous systems on job sites, fresh opportunities in long-term asset management, better connectivity between different software platforms, and the growing emphasis on 3D visualization—and you've got a landscape that's creating real opportunities to do more than just deliver traditional survey products.

Now available: Trimble Access v2025.22

Trimble Access field software version 2025.22 is now available. This update resolves a known issue with high CPU usage, which caused controller batteries to drain faster than expected. We recommend all users update to this version to ensure optimal battery life and performance. For more details, please view the full release notes on Trimble Help.

You face constant pressure to move dirt quickly while keeping track of volumes. Less accurate measurements and outdated surveys are always threatening to throw your earthworks budgets off, by a lot.

Wingtra built SURVEY61 to solve this. It delivers <0.1 ft / <3 cm accuracy without the need to lay down GCPs, so you can capture reliable volumes faster, more often and with less disruption.

Sometimes the right equipment decision doesn't align with the budget calendar. We get it.

That's why we offer flexible financing with rates starting at 1.99% for 12 months. Upgrade your total station, add that second GNSS system, or finally replace that temperamental data collector—without the cash flow crunch.

Quick approval. Competitive rates. Equipment delivered fast.

Many of our customers finance major purchases to keep their survey operations running at peak efficiency year-round.
