Field General combined with InSite SiteWork allows point data to be prepared for layout with traditional data collectors and positioning equipment (traditional two person total station, robotic total station or GPS) and allows export of site models to GPS machine control systems.

A complete demonstration is available on our Demo CD. The website tour is an overview of how Field General works.

Offset Staking of curbs, buildings, roads, etc. is easy. Just pick points from the CAD File. Indicate the offset distance and how often you want a stake. Dual offset the centerline of a road, get intermediate stake elevations between known elevated points, print a scaled plan with the layout points, and much more.

Measure Work in Progress. Need to verify work done to date? Shoot the site, and import as an alternate set of proposed grades. Instantly InSite calculates your site numbers. To calculate the next phase, just copy proposed to existing, import the next shot, and InSite calculates the new quantity. Print cross sections, 3-D's and cut & fill maps to show the actual excavation progress.

Export to Machine Control. InSite’s Field General exports surface models to Trimble’s SiteVision 3-D, Topcon’s 3DMC, and Leica 3D Systems. These special files provide a triangulated surface to the  automated machine control.

Products like Trimble's SiteVision, Topcon's 3DMC and Leica's GradeStar  GPS machine control systems allow this triangulated surface from InSite SiteWork to be loaded into an on-board machine (dozer, grader, etc.) control. The GPS unit supplies the X and Y (northing and easting) coordinates, and the triangulated surface provides the elevation data. The on-board readout shows how high to raise or lower the blade for stake-less grading.
