Many years of field experience and software development went into GeoPad Construction. The result?A user-friendly application for handheld computing devices. It guides on-site personnel through the com-plete construction project from start to finish. Use GeoPad Construction throughout your construction project for measuring control points through staking and checking surfaces to final as-built measurements.

Use the same field software for all of your measurement sensors
GeoPad Construction may be used with virtually any mod-el of measurement sensor, total station or GPS, from any manufacturer. Total station and GPS measurements may even be combined within the same project. A straightfor-ward GPS localization wizard is available for making sure you measure in the correct site co-ordinates as is a wizard for setting-up a total station that ensures that most pos-sible error sources are eliminated.

Keep track of project progress with the SBG Construction software family
GeoPad Construction exchanges data seamlessly with the universal SBG Geo Construction PC software pack-age and the GeoROG (Right On Grade) machine control application. Measure a newly graded section of the site with GeoPad Construction, pass the measurements to Geo Construction and calculate exact surface to surface volumes for cost estimates. GeoPad Construction in conjunction with Geo Construction may also be used for straightforward daily, weekly and monthly reporting.

Use GeoPad Construction for all your measurement needs
GeoPad Construction is as flexible as your measurement requirements. Grade checking may be done with the sensor on the pole, on a quad bike or in a car. Your site design could be the digital terrain model of a golf course or refuse dump, the alignment of a new pipeline or a com-plete layer-based road-model for a new highway, GeoPad Construction can handle all of your design data and more.
