Trimble has unveiled the Trimble T10 tablet, a rugged data processing device for surveying and geographic information system (GIS) applications. The new platform offers the processing power of a laptop computer in tablet form.

"The Trimble T10 tablet gives survey and GIS professionals a single-device solution for powerful, efficient data collection and processing in the field," says Jason Rossback, marketing director for Trimble Geospatial field solutions. "Previously, these professionals may have relied on a laptop computer in addition to a survey controller or data collector. With the T10’s robust processing power, users can collect and process their data running a broad range of applications, eliminating the need for a separate laptop computer and speeding the time-to-results by enabling deliverables to be produced while out on the job.”
