Stake to Surface
Posted: Thu Apr 25, 2013 2:40 pm
I have been using trimble GPS's for many years but I changed jobs and I am now using a Sokkia GPS with Carlson SurvCe 2 software. With the trimble I could import a dxf surface onto the data collector and place grade stakes wherever I wanted. Fo instance, if I am grading a subdivision I could create the entire subdivision in dxf and then go to site and lay grade stakes where the contractor needed. As of now I can only make a point list at the corner of each individual lot and then lay those out. The Stake to Surface was really handy and I would like to use it again. Does Carlson have any kind of capability like this?
