For every geospatial expert, datums, geoids and coordinate systems are essential pieces of knowledge that drive position precision

For Trimble customers, geodetic assurance is facilitated by the Trimble Geodetic Library (TGL). First established in the 1990s, TGL is a set of software libraries commonly used to transform geodetic coordinates (latitude, longitude, height) into plane coordinates and elevation (north, east, elevation). Most importantly, the TGL facilitates consistency and accuracy through the same and the latest Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS) and transform coordinates using the same algorithms with the same results on all supported Trimble platforms.
