Compatible GNSS Devices

Pair a compatible GNSS or GPS device with Ecobot to record your lat/long for a Sampling Point or wetland boundary.

We've tested the following GPS / GNSS devices and confirm they will transfer lat/long data with Ecobot:

Note: Ecobot has built an integration with Trimble, Leica, Eos, and Juniper Systems, enabling a full view of GNSS metadata, called Location Data View in-app.

For any additional manufacturers and devices listed below, there is not yet an integration for full metadata, but real-time sync of lat/long data only.

For an extensive resource on the tested accuracies of common GPS devices, see the U.S. Forest Service's most recent list here.

• Trimble Geospatial* 
  • Trimble DA2 Catalyst
  • Trimble R1
  • Trimble R2
  • Trimble R12
• Hexagon | Leica Geosystems
  • Zeno FLX100 smart antenna
• Eos GNSS**
  • Arrow 100
  • Arrow 200
  • Arrow Gold

*If you are using a Trimble GNSS device you MUST be running the Trimble Mobile Manager app and have the Trimble device connected to that app in order to get GNSS data from a Trimble device into Ecobot.

**If you are using an Eos or Juniper device, simply connect via Bluetooth. You do not need to be running a companion application to receive location data inside Ecobot.

For a GPS or GNSS device to work with Ecobot Collector on an iOS device, it must be compatible with current versions of iOS. Some older GPS or GNSS devices may no longer sync to updated iOS devices. Please refer to your GPS or GNSS device manufacturer's resources to learn whether or not your device works with updated iOS devices.
