GroundLog is the field compliance log for environmental inspectors, built by one. Everything you document on a construction site lives in one place: structured daily logs, a live GPS field map you can draw on, geotagged photo documentation with a compass overlay, BMP and restoration tracking with real progress math, and polished inspection reports generated from your own notes. DAILY LOGS • Structured cards for site observations, crew and contractors, weather, compliance checks, and open items • Carry forward yesterday's entries and edit from there instead of retyping • Close the day as an immutable, versioned submission with a certification line • Works fully offline; syncs when you're back in coverage FIELD MAP • Draw work areas, trace perimeter controls, drop markers and punch-list flags right on the map • Track every feature by state: planned, installed, stabilized, removed • Import KML/KMZ plan layers and georeferenced plan sheets as overlays • Net disturbed-area math that handles overlaps for you PHOTOS • Native camera with a live compass bearing and caption overlay • Every shot is geotagged, pinned to the map, and filed by date and category • Seed-tag and bag-weight capture for seeding and restoration records INSPECTIONS AND REPORTS • SWPPP qualified-inspector inspection form with a signed PDF export • Daily inspection report (DOCX/PDF) assembled from the day's log, photos, and map, polished by AI only when you ask • Tracker exports to Excel, map data to KML/KMZ, photos bundled with their metadata WEATHER AND TRIGGERS • Site rainfall from public radar-derived data plus the NWS forecast for your jobsite • Open-item reminders that follow the rules you set PROJECTS AND TEAMS • Work alone, or invite your team with role-based access • Your notes stay private until you submit a day or share an item; reviewers see only what you published • Sign in with Apple, Google, or email YOUR DATA IS YOURS • Export everything, anytime, in open formats: DOCX, PDF, XLSX, KML, ZIP • Delete your account and all associated data from inside the app • No ads, no tracking, no selling of data. Ever. Built for environmental inspectors, qualified inspectors, and field compliance teams on solar, transmission, pipeline, and civil construction sites.
