FEB 28: Complimentary LaserGIS Workshop

CompassTools is offering a free training for our customers who use Esri ArcPad®! Visit our Centennial, Colorado headquarters on Tuesday, Feb. 28, from 9 am - 1 pm, for a hands-on workshop on how you can maximize ArcPad efficiency using LaserGIS. Lunch will be provided. Bring your own equipment, or we will provide equipment for you to practice on.

This training is free, but an RSVP is required!

HERE IS WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:

LaserGIS for ArcPad Rangefinder Module - Integrate your Laser Technology, Inc. Laser Rangefinder and your GIS dataset
Getting your laser to work seamlessly with your GIS software is a major step in increasing productivity and providing usable data for your team. Laser Technology, Inc. (LTI) has the answer: LaserGIS for ArcPad. It's the first robust software extension that significantly enhances ArcPad's current laser offset functionality. Key Features:

  • Connect your TruPulse 360 and configure your options within seconds.
  • Easily record laser offset data with or without GPS using an existing ArcPad map or from a template.
  • Use "Quick Traverse" to map and calculate an area as well as determine your percentage error of closure.
  • Automatically and instantly import your height measurements, as well as distance, azimuth, slope and reference coordinates, within your GIS attributes.
  • Use GPS or any feature on your map to set your reference point. You can also use a survey monument or even just tap on your map to get started.
  • Map multiple objects from one location, with our without GPS, or do a traverse by occupying the location of your last shot.
  • Expedite the process by auto-accepting your measurements and features and LaserGIS will collect all your data without touching the screen.
  • Automatically apply declination settings based on your map or GPS location.
  • And more.
