GIS Information

Field CE provides a complex
GIS database on-board

The NEZ Plane - A necessity in professional packages

Merge traditional Northings and Eastings on a local plane, with GPS data (latitude/longitude)

1) Pick any point on the survey and assign 1000N, 1000E as its coordinates.

2) Go to that point and record a GPS position

(shown at A).

3) To produce the correct orientation and scale, pick one other point and record a GPS position

(shown at B).
