AgGPS® 252 Receiver

The Trimble® AgGPS® 252 receiver is the next generation of innovative high performance GPS receivers

The AgGPS 252 enables revolutionary GPS technology by providing the first WAAS/EGNOS, OmniSTAR VBS, OmniSTAR HP, and RTK GPS receiver in a rugged, all-in-one, smart antenna design. The result is a system that provides a true investment that will grow with any agricultural operation.

The AgGPS 252 receiver is for agricultural users requiring any level of positional performance. It provides a high performance 12-channel GPS engine, with state of the art ionosphere and troposphere models that reduce positional error in any environment. The L1/L2 smart antenna design allows flexibility so you can choose any differential source without making costly hardware upgrades. Operate in Real Time Kinematic (RTK) mode and positions are computed using robust processing techniques tailored to provide highly accurate solutions. Real Time DGPS mode uses WAAS/EGNOS or an OmniSTAR VBS or HP subscription service. Utilization of sub-meter and decimeter solutions enables continued operation without a local base station providing service to a wide area without productivity loss, and improving efficiency.

With multiple accuracy options available, the AgGPS 252 suits a variety of application needs—providing the ultimate autosteering system when used with the AgGPS Autopilot system. Consistency, pass after pass, eliminates the need for costly and deliberate conventional row crop preparation techniques. And use of the AgGPS 252 can help even the best operators perform critical applications such as listing, bedding, and planting throughout the day and night.

The advanced low-profile design increases system robustness and security from field obstructions. Easy to install, the AgGPS 252 connects to a wide range of precision agriculture equipment, including Trimble's AgGPS Autopilot system, Trimble's lightbar guidance products, yield monitors, portable field computers, or any device that requires industry-standard NMEA 0183 or TSIP data messages.
