Timmons Group (VA, USA), a geospatial consulting services, has announced a business partner agreement with Trimble to resell and distribute selected Mapping & GIS products, including the GPS Pathfinder Pro series receivers, GeoExplorer series of rugged GPS handhelds, rugged Trimble Recon handhelds, and Trimble Recon GPS series systems.

Timmons Group will also provide Trimble hardware and software as part of a complete enterprise data management solution for the firm's TG LoGIStics product line of solutions, including field-based data management solutions for land records, E-911 addressing, utility inventory and our ArcGIS Server based mobile applications for Land Management agencies serving the Forestry, Natural Resources, Transportation and other State and Local Government applications.

Timmons Group specialises in developing Enterprise Land Management applications utilising ESRI's ArcGIS Server, ArcGIS Mobile and SQL Server Compact technologies. These applications are designed to facilitate the creation, editing, validation, storage and management of spatial data elements. The incorporation of web services adhering to the principles of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) allows clients to have access to a suite of geospatial functionality throughout land management agencies, providing the added benefit of a reusable design model to be leveraged by future applications.

Timmons Group also provides embedded Trimble GPS functionality to our TG LoGIStics Products within ESRI's ArcGIS environment, using a combination of standard technologies, including MS Visual Studio, MS Ink Technology, ESRI ArcObjects, and Trimble Pathfinder Tools Software Development Kit (SDK). This "plug-in" functionality to the ArcGIS extensions handles all communications between the GPS receiver and the application, including the configuration and supply of real-time differential corrections from radio beacons and satellites.
