12d Field

“Best-in-class” tool for the topographic, cadastral and engineering surveyor who demands better productivity in the office or the field.

What is 12d Field?

12d Field helps surveyors and engineers streamline office-to-field workflows by taking desktop projects on-site. The software allows you to use 12d Models full functionality on tablets and notebooks in the field. It is hardware-agnostic, allowing the user to be live on screen and connect to multitude of different robotic total stations and GNSS receivers.

12d Field brings the power of the office to the field, enabling quicker responses to project demands

What can you do with 12d Field?

Survey Data Reduction

12d Field File provides a full auditable trail for Quality Assurance (QA)

Measurements can be checked, edited and adjustments applied to field data

Automatically apply models (layers), linestyles, symbols, colours, solid fills, lineweights and correctly sized pipe structures, all based on a singular field code

Apply rich attribute and Meta data automatically to your survey data

Traverse, Adjustments, and Transformations

Manage, manipulate and move survey data to position within local and global systems.

Handle complex networks and adjustments using 12d Models traverse editor

Adjustments method options – transit, bowditch, Crandall, Compass or Least Squares
Utilise solar and star reductions without requiring almanac details
Geodetic interactive reporting of longitude and latitude, easting and northing, projection bearing and distance, and ellipsoid distance. Full geodetic calculations
Zone to Zone and general conversions between Latitude/Longitude and Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projections, Transverse Mercator and most other projections
Global transformation methods – affine, 2D and 3D Helmert, seven parameters and NTv2 Grids. These include converting between different coordinate systems all over the globe
