Trimble InSphere vs Smart Lidar

The Trimble® InSphere™ Data Manager application enables central management of your organization’s geospatial information, accessible anytime, and anywhere. GEOSPATIAL information – ALL IN ONE PLACE The Trimble InSphere Data Manager application allows users to securely manage geospatial data in one place, improving access to data for the whole organization. Data Manager allows you to quickly access, search, and view geospatial information and survey control points using an intuitive interface. View layers from different information sources at the same time, including public survey control information. SAVE TIME AND IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY Geospatial organizations can efficiently reuse collected data in new projects. Instead of starting a new project from scratch, project managers, survey managers and field crews can save time by incorporating previous project information or control points into new project field packages and assignments. Simply center the map around a new project location and immediately see which projects you’ve done nearby and what data is available for reuse. Selecting features on the map allows you to see their detailed attributes and export them to a CSV file to send to the field. ACCESS – ANYTIME, ANYWHERE InSphere Data Manager delivers simple and effective information management for geospatial professionals, enabling access anytime and anywhere via a web browser on a desktop or on a mobile device. Managers in the office can quickly discover reusable information from previous projects and incorporate them into estimates and assignments. Project managers and field crews can easily obtain nearby control points to a location using the mobile application. TRIMBLE INSPHERE FOR INTEGRATED APPLICATIONS Data Manager is part of Trimble InSphere, a cloud-based software platform for central management of geospatial applications, information and services. Trimble InSphere allows geospatial professionals access to an ecosystem of integrated applications, including Data Manager, Equipment Manager, TerraFlex™ software, and Trimble Access™ Services. Features: View Project Information on Map –– See an overview of what projects and control points are available in the area –– See available project information on your map and choose which data to display View Feature Attributes ––Click on any feature on the map to see its detailed attributes View NGS control points (U.S. only) ––Quickly see what NGS control points are available in the project area Export to CSV ––Select a control point from the map view and create a .CSV file for exporting to the field Navigate to Point ––A Compass shows you which direction to walk and how far to help you locate control points Support for multiple data types ––View information from VCE, SHP and KML files together in one place

Smart Lidar is the EagleArca digital touchpoint for capturing 3D LiDAR surveys directly on site using compatible iPhone and iPad Pro devices. The app allows field operators to quickly document the real condition of excavations, pipes, site constraints, and work progress, turning each surveyed section into a georeferenced, photographic, and consultable 3D point cloud. The workflow is simple: select the project, set the origin point, start the scan, review the result, and save the survey. When a connection is available, you can manually sync the data with EagleArca Web, integrating it into operational projects and making it available for consultation, measurements, history tracking, and comparison with the design project. Smart Lidar is designed for linear jobsites, excavations, pipe installation, inspections, and as-built activities, even in environments where connectivity is not always stable. Key features: • 3D LiDAR scans from compatible Apple devices • Capture of the real jobsite condition • Point clouds with GPS coordinates and texture • Configurable scan quality: Standard, Pro, and Ultra • Local saving of surveys • Manual online sync with EagleArca Web • Integration with EagleArca projects • Automatic photos to support documentation • Exportable output associated with the operational project Compatible devices: Smart Lidar requires a LiDAR scanner, available on iPhone 12 Pro or later Pro models and on iPad Pro models from 2020 onward.
