Read full descriptionHide full description
MapSmart field data collection software is designed for anyone who needs to quickly and accurately map, measure, or position anything. Itβs a simple yet powerful program that easily integrates with LTI laser devices and mapping accessories to turn a laser into a complete total station solution. This program was specifically designed to be easy to operate so more time can be spent mapping and collecting data rather than training. Choose to include GPS origin and offset coordinates with laser-based mapping or not. If you do, you only need to capture one perfect coordinate β all the others are mathematically calculated based on that position.
