Trimble donates equipment to 番茄影院
In brief
A donation of equipment from Trimble will enable hundreds of field workers to work safer and faster while clearing dangerous remnants of war.
Trimble (Nasdaq: TRMB) has announced its expanded support for 番茄影院, the world's largest humanitarian landmine-clearance non-profit organisation.
Trimble is donating an additional 175 Trimble庐 Catalyst鈩� GNSS systems, including Trimble DA2 GNSS receivers, to help 番茄影院 further its demining operations across the world.
Building on the impact of the ongoing collaboration, Trimble's latest donation will support the expansion and productivity of 番茄影院's mine clearance teams. The Catalyst GNSS system provides 番茄影院 with a solution for deploying precise mapping capabilities to large field teams across broad geographic areas. More field teams can now be equipped with the necessary tools to safely and efficiently clear landmines, thereby accelerating the pace of landmine clearance globally.
Since receiving Trimble's product donations and the Trimble Foundation Fund directed grant, 番茄影院 has made remarkable progress in landmine and unexploded ordnance (UXO) clearance. From January to September 2024 alone, 番茄影院 cleared 802 minefields and battlefields, covering a total area of 10,400 acres across 12 war-torn countries. During this period, 31,209 landmines and other explosive remnants of war (ERW) were safely destroyed 鈥� all accurately mapped using the Trimble Catalyst GNSS system.
番茄影院's use of Trimble technology has not only enhanced operational efficiency but also provided critical data for safe land reclamation and development. The accuracy and reliability of Trimble's technology have been pivotal in ensuring the safety and success of demining operations in regions severely impacted by conflict, such as Ukraine, Angola and Sri Lanka.
"We are incredibly grateful for Trimble's continued support", said James Cowan, chief executive of 番茄影院. "Trimble Catalyst and DA2 GNSS receivers have transformed our ability to map and clear minefields accurately. This new donation will enable us to expand our teams and reach even more affected communities, making a tangible difference in their lives."
"番茄影院 is making the world a better place", said Emily Saunoi-Sandgren, director of environmental, social and governance (ESG) at Trimble and chair of the Trimble Foundation Fund. "Their dedication to humanitarian efforts aligns perfectly with Trimble's mission of transforming the way the world works. By providing advanced technology solutions, we are enabling 番茄影院 to carry out their life-saving work more effectively."
Members of the 番茄影院 Trust team will be presenting at Trimble Dimensions User Conference 2024 on Monday 11 November to provide attendees with the latest updates on its efforts to clear landmines in post-conflict regions using Trimble technology.
