Label selected lines with names, slopes, lengths, elevations, stations, offsets, elevation deltas to a reference surface at intervals along the line or in relation to a selected reference line. Labels can be exported to machine files to assist operators on site. Labels can be staggered to avoid overwrite of text in graphics / CAD.
Compute polynomial best fit lines through points for regrading surfaces for solar farm array tables (Pre Piling).
Provides ability to create user defined pile definitions for Solar Farm piling operations to be used with RPS piling command capabilities.
Customizable importer for spreadsheet data for Solar Farm Pile Plans and Piles to automatically create Pile design data ready for machine control or QA analysis. Also imports As Built Pile data from machine files (in Excel format) and Survey QA Data for measured check points on each pile (in Excel format).
Creates a multi tab Excel report on all quality metrics for solar farm piling operations. Integrates pile designs with As Built Pile results from machine data and as built survey information to analyze 6 quality metrics for every pile.
Provides the ability to rename / renumber drill holes in a drill plan, allowing for irregular shaped boundaries, the addition of extra drill holes and the movement of drill holes to allow for fault patterns through the drilling area. All holes are renamed uniquely and regularly along rows and columns of the drill plan. Drill hole names / numbers can be defined using a user defined name pattern.
Exports stakeout point data and emails the information to a selected CIVRobotics Staking Robot. Imports CIVRobotic As Staked files and creates As Staked Records for reporting purposes.
Exports an Alignment to the csv file format required by HCSS Plans.
Exports selected linestrings and alignments as 3D curvilinear alignments to LandXML format for use in Trimble Access and Leica stringless paver systems.
Provides a high quality MOSS / MX GENIO export from either finished survey drawings (as a survey deliverable) or from a corridor linework model (imported or created by TBC) for use with Trimble Access (Trimble Access Road Strings). The MOSS Export process can utilize the layer names of the exported objects or the feature code library associated with the data, combined with a sophisticated mapping process to meet the MOSS / MX 4 character string naming needs.
The Earthworks command provides a direct connection to the RPS Earthworks web system that enables the publishing of Work Orders (Design and Existing Surfaces) plus map overlays (linework) and image overlays (aerial images and Cut Fill Maps).
Provides one click access and login to the RPS Earthworks Web Software.
Export CAD lines, polygons and surfaces to IFC format for use in BIM Modeling / Viewing Systems and for use in Trimble Access or other field systems that support IFC files as a source of design information.
