Successful on-site measurement, whether checking, staking or using machine control systems depends upon the preparation and integrity of the design data. The software application used to prepare design data for on-site measurement and machine control systems must maintain this integrity whether design data comes in the form of a paper plan or a complete 3D digital model. SBG Geo Construction, a complete data preparation, editing and reporting software package can fulfil this requirement and much more. Many different design entities from simple road align-ments to more complex road stringline, cross-section or layer models as well as digital terrain models and back-ground maps may be used with Geo Construction. Geo Construction is compatible with many different ma-chine control systems. The software supports a range of machine control systems and measurement sensors from SBG, Leica Geosystems and other equipment manufactur-ers including Topcon, Trimble, and Mikrofyn. The optional Geo Construction volumes module al-lows accurate surface to surface or surface to elevation volumes for cost estimation purposes. This module allows complete control of the surface models used for calcula-tion including boundaries and breaklines. The module may also be used for creating terrain profiles and sections. Geo Construction offers various standard reports for qual-ity control reporting. For example, a statistical check and tolerance report of deviations with respect to a design surface can be created at the click of a button.
