Platinum Earthmoving uses GPS in its excavators to provide precise, efficient final trim and bulk earthworks. Operators can now view 3D models in a real-world environment at a true-life scale, in the context of existing surroundings. On the Trimble Earthworks Grade Control Platform display, the model is overlaid onto existing ground giving the operator a better
understanding of the work that needs to be done. Visibility of the bucket gives operators better situational awareness to be able to keep surrounding people and objects safer. Users can easily understand 3D models, cut/fill information, slope data and other bench points and
reference points in context, without the need to interpret complex 2D plans or stakes.
