Bug fixes​

Import from Shapefile - some users were unable to import the data. This problem is now resolved. Other minor bug fixes.

Project Management​

Ability to divide your work into distinct projects, with full import and export functionality. Each project can have its own layers, settings, and data. You can create, switch between, and remove projects as needed.

The best way to back up a project is to export it using the Export Project feature available in the Project Options.

The data exported that way can be imported back into a new project later if needed.

• FTP/SFTP Export: Export Data to FTP/SFTP Server. Please set the connection details in Settings → Remote Connections.
• KML import improvements: Now placemark name and description are imported to fields if such fields exist in the layer.
• UI Improvements: Improved layout for ‘Edit Layer’ activity.
• Bug fix: On some devices with Android 10 versions, users were unable to use the ‘Remove last vertex’ function. Now fixed.

• Data Quality Checks: Added some data quality checks, particularly related to empty geometry for some records for imports. Before, the import failed when such features were presented; now they are skipped, and overall import is successful for correct geometries.

• Support for NAD 1983 UTM Zone 15N (WKID: 26915): Files with coordinates projection WKID: 26915 (NAD 1983 UTM Zone 15N) can now be directly imported without prior conversion to WGS84.

• PostgreSQL Export Improvements: Show/Hide ‘append’ or ‘overwrite’ table option for PostgreSQL Export. It can be enabled in Miscellaneous settings. The PostgreSQL Export setting now accepts the hostname or domain alternatively IP address needs to be provided.

• Enriched export options: User can choose export coordinate (lat, lng), z or x, y, z for projected CRS as separate fields. It can be enabled in Miscellaneous settings.

• Project Point method: Insert new points or vertices using the distance and bearing method, which can be enabled in Survey Settings. This method also supports connection to external laser rangefinders.

• Copy Layer as empty: Copy the existing layer as a new empty layer with all settings maintained, including field setup.

• Move point feature: Move point features to a new location. Long-click the point on the map to enable this mode.

• Export data to PostgreSQL Database
• GPS accuracy and quality on the map

• Import from ArcJSON
• Import from Shapefile
• Layers list sorting
• Position averaging
• Edit Point geometry
• Support for WMTS services
• Support for XYZ services
• Navigate to feature
• New Export/Import Formats (GPX, DXF)
