What Survey Maker does
Survey Maker is a program dedicated to the survey field, which includes solutions for the land surveyor, engineering surveyor, surface and underground mining surveyor, geodetic surveyor and hydro-surveyor. This program is a new addition to the range of software developed by Model Maker Systems and currently undergoing many development changes as users request enhancements.
The program let you enter data using a range of methods, from Model Maker type files, to electronic fieldbooks and manual input into the different calculation pages. All correction factors is being used, as well as limits of error calculations is being applied where necessary. Survey Maker truly is one of the most user friendly and accurate tools available to the surveyor today.
Survey points can be entered manually or imported from ASCII-files. Data can be manipulated with a user-friendly editor or graphically on screen. A separate beacon file interface allows for easy access to different beacon files with fully customizable beacon descriptions. All the general survey calculations is presented in a very easy to use way, with keyboard shortcuts, and mouse-only operations simplifying the calculation process. Calculations range from joins, polars, traverse, resection, erf calculations, intersection calculations and more. Transformations include Helmert- and Goldfields transformation. The printouts of the calculations may be printed, or saved for electronic mail and safe-keeping. Datum conversions using the MMS method is also included in this module. Convert coordinates between Cape Clark - WGS84 - OSGB36 - NzTM2000.
This module allows for the complete method needed to produce SG diagrams as produced by professional land surveyors. From the working plan, to the general plan and individual diagrams compiling the final result has never been so easy before.
The leveling data from a field book can be reduced to final elevations with all corrections applied. For road cross-section levels you can import a horizontal alignment and export the surveyed points to a Model Maker YXZ file or Road Maker XX1 file.
The two main functions included in the Mining Module are the Peg Calc function and a Peg Register. The Peg Calc function will allow the easy and accurate calculation of peg for both surface and underground surveys. With the Peg Register Tool a SQL-based database can be managed for storage of all peg coordinates and full PDF reports of all peg calcs.
