What data plan do you recommend for use with Trimble SiteVision?

When SiteVision is running it uses very little network bandwidth to obtain corrections. The component that uses the most data is downloading the models. We recommend a plan with at least 5GB of data. This will allow for periodic use of SiteVision e.g. one day a week or a couple of hours a day. However, if you are using large models, and multiple downloads of models with your cellular data, we recommend an unlimited plan.
