Personnel using 2373 Spectra Precision FOCUS solutions can now benefit from a more robust set of tools. This field software provides a wide array of tools to cope with an array of survey and construction projects. One key new feature is the LandXML Road support for laying out engineering and road profile elements, as this can improve dataflow and efficiency on site. In addition, external data streaming for the output of measurement and positional data from Survey Pro in an XML output means that data can be adapted to specific needs. And in Survey Pro version 4.10, the Spectra Precision Solution Improvement Program allows a user to opt-in to provide information about how field software is used, allowing future upgrades to benefit from field data.
