MAJOR NEW FEATURES: VERSION 6
• Enhanced Search icon now available in all live survey screens with access to multiple search methods for TS/RTS
• Voice prompting In Stakeout allows users to keep their eyes on the environment while staking
• Google, Open Street Maps, Esri® Maps, and your own
WMS overlays now available in the field
• GIS Inspector allows instant access to GIS attributing in the map screen
• Surface Inspector enables easy comparison of plan vs. as-built in elevation difference, making it simpler to store and stake the points that matter
• Obstructed Point Stakeout allows guided staking of unreachable points by marking azimuth and distance
• Automatic Backsight Check in the joystick screen makes it easier to check your setup at any time
• GPS Tolerance Band instantly indicates when a tolerance is exceeded in live survey screens
HYBRID+
• Mix and match any RTS and GNSS from Carlson’s vast driver library
• GPS Search is faster than any search method available
• Follow Me keeps the total station pointed where you need it by continuously tracking the GNSS location
• Smart Lock detects when you are slowing down to take a measurement and automatically locks on the prism—ready when you are
• Smart Staking provides directions from the GNSS when the total station position isn’t available, then automatically locks back on the prism when you reach your destination
• Backup Tracking — GPS position is automatically shown when total station is not tracking
• GNSS Sensors work with the total station to allow e-level in total station mode and automatic correction of tilted poles
ADVANCED ROADING
• Powerful Roading: favored by U.S. DOTs and heavy highway contractors around the world
• Comprehensive routines: Slope Staking, As-Built Topo with “Store Sections”, and more
• Advanced functionality for staking intersections and
culde-sacs using Carlson Road Network Files
POWERED BY ESRI® (SURVPC ONLY)
• Powered by Esri: If ArcMap10, ArcView or equivalent reside on the same Windows tablet, SurvPC ‘finds’ the Esri engine and reads and writes Esri MXD files automatically, or SurvPC can be purchased with an Esri OEM engine built inside
• Intuitively use Esri Maps to perform all survey functions with no downtime learning new software
• Stake out, identify or draw to any existing feature by conventional ‘snap’ selection in Esri, DGN or .dxf
• Create new points in Esri, DGN or .dxf with symbols and formats native to the map

THE ROBOSCAN WORKFLOW WITH SURVEY GRID
Use your robotic total station as a simple low density grid scanner with the RoboScan Workflow. This powerful tool, available in versions 5.05 and higher, can use the RoboScan Workflow With Grid Scan to take reflectorless shots along a grid that you define, automating the collection of numerous points in a few short steps.
