Post Processing Trimble ProXh receiver with ArcGIS Mobile

Anyone done Post Processing using ArcGIS mobile? Trimble offers post processing software for ArcPad but how can you do post processing in ArcGIS mobile application?

Thanks

Dion,

Trimble Positions toolkit, an SDK for developers to build and deploy custom solutions using ArcGIS for Mobile technology and Trimble GNSS receivers. More information is found on Trimble Mobile GIS Developer Community site.

Cheers,
Denise

It has been a while since I analyzed this, but the technology should still work. ArcGIS Mobile uses your feature class design. If you add a binary field to your feature class, you can use that field to store an .ssf file for each collected feature. This is somewhat inefficient because you want to process just one .ssf file when you get back to the office. However, with this pattern you will have both the original feature and the information necessary for post-processing and they will be automatically synchronized with your server. Once the data are on the server, you will need to develop a tool to automate the processing. I believe that Paul York at Alsea Geospatial has successfully implemented this model.

Hi...

The Trimble Positions Software Suite includes an extension for ArcGIS for Windows Mobile as well as an extension for ArcPad. These extensions effectively enable Esri's out-of-box mobile applications (on Windows Mobile) for high-accuracy data collection when running on a Trimble handheld or paired with a Trimble receiver. In doing so, they preserve the out-of-box workflow that Esri provides. The Trimble Positions Toolkit can be used by developers to build high-accuracy applications using Esri's ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Windows Mobile. Both the ArcGIS for Windows Mobile and ArcPad workflows are supported in the Trimble Positions Desktop add-in where you would do your setup, post-processing, and validation.

To correct one thing that was said later in the thread, the Trimble Positions Mobile extension does not use .ssf files like the Trimble Positions ArcPad extension does. It uses a different technology to store the underlying GNSS session data that should provide a better experience for the user.

Regards,

Matt
