Trimble Business Center (TBC) is Trimble’s flagship survey CAD software for capturing, processing, and visualising geospatial data and turning it into high-quality, actionable information and client deliverables. It is included in Trimble’s 2023 Trimble Technology Lab (TTL) gift to the University of Auckland, and contains a deep set of features and tools for managing field data.

AllTerra distributes TBC in New Zealand and periodically hosts a TBC Power Week for industry practitioners to deepen their understanding of and skillset in TBC. Last week, the University of Auckland’s Trimble Technology Lab welcomed seven TBC Power Week instructors (from both AllTerra and Trimble) and approximately 30 trainees for the three-day training. Six students and staff from the university also took part in the training, expanding the foundation of Trimble software expertise on campus.

The three days of deep dives into TBC covered the topics outlined below and highlighted the latest features in the Trimble software.

Day 1: CORE: Efficiency in UI / Streamlining your feature codes + processing / Reducing combinations of data / Adjusting networks

Day 2: CONSTRUCT: Construction computations / Scan inspections + BIM objects / Photogrammetry + volumes

Day 3: CHECK / CLASSIFY / CREATE: Monitoring / Point Cloud processing / Creating CAD deliverables
