Digital Terrain Modeling, Volumes, Contouring

FieldGenius has the ability to create and utilize DTM surfaces from existing survey data or create a DTM in real time as the data is collected. The TIN and contours will automatically update as each new shot is taken.

If a DTM surface is present, the user can stake to any point on that surface by simply supplying the N,E location to be staked. There are many methods of selecting the N and E location for staking such as:

Station and offset from an existing horizontal alignment
An existing point, uploaded, surveyed or stored via COGO
Real time observation (conventional total station, robotic total station or GPS)
Manually entered location
Surface data can be shown as a wireframe mesh or a solid surface for simplifying your viewing.
