TerraFlow has built a 3D surface management application for road construction, landfill management, etc. See how we leverage FME to transform AutoCAD and Microstation engineering design files into a "surface" that the mobile application uses in order to cut/fill and compliance information in real time in the field.

5. Mobile Problems
Do you have any of these questions?
● I can’t look at my phone and collect data
safely?
● I have too much equipment to carry?
● I can’t stop and tap on the screen?
● I want to process data in the field?

6. Surface
Management
In field 3D comparison
● How to manage fill vs design in
a landfill / road surface grading /
excavation / etc
● Cut / Fill real time reporting
● 3D reports in field
● Windows tablet based
● GNSS Status with Trimble R2
● Trimble FieldPoint RTX or Can-
Net
