1 Data Collection for GIS April 9, 2015 Frontier Precision User Group

2 Goal Overview of the InSphere Platform and our goals to make better data management tools for you Deep dive on a couple of software products for GIS data collection: Trimble Positions and Trimble TerraFlex software Update you on the latest enhancements and how to utilize them to maximize your efficiencies and project goals

3 Trimble Insphere

4 InSphere today Search, access, visualize and share geospatial data - layered onto background maps. Keep track of field gear- know its location and status, manage equipment and receive alerts Discover and access data relevant to your projects- satellite and aerial imagery, elevation data, census data, etc. Mobile app that streamlines field data collection using project workflows with collection templates. Wirelessly transfer Surveying data files between field and office.

5 InSphere Data Manager Data Manager allows you to access, search, visualize and share your geospatial data Improve your project results by streamlining the flow of data

6 Easily Organize data. Find it and Use it. Keep your data organized by projects Projects can be tied to locations Projects contain groups of data layers and files to keep all project information together Continuously increasing support for more data types, including TBC, TGO, KML, CSV, SHP and more Easy-to-use, intuitive interface Search via map or keyword

7 InSphere Equipment Manager Equipment Manager helps you manage all your surveying gear, mapping devices, and other field equipment

8 Complete, Accurate Equipment Information View complete device details - make, model, serial number, location, warranty, firmware, software, and user history. Know your equipment s location. Get last known location from built-in GPS, or assign a location See recent usage, and lapses in usage View alerts, warranties, firmware, software, and user information

9 Trimble Access Services Trimble Access Services Cloud based application and data hosting for survey data to be processed by TBC Trimble Access Suite of full featured field survey data collection solutions, supporting our portfolio of survey instruments

10 Trimble Access Services AccessSync is a wireless file transfer service between field controllers and the office Saves time on the job by ensuring everyone accesses the most recent data Wirelessly sends and receive jobs Job files are automatically converted if necessary

11 TerraFlex A flexible, cloud based solution for robust field data collection enabling fast, efficient, attribute rich, geolocated data collection with an intuitive digital forms interface from a wide variety of mobile GPS-ready devices

12 TerraFlex

13 Easy Digital Form Creator Full Selection of Attribute Types

14 Import From Existing Schemas Use ArcXML schema Or use TerraFlex Plug-in for ArcMap

15 Import Existing Data Import Feature Data Create and edit the data collection template from the shape file definition Or use TerraFlex Plug-in for ArcMap

16 How This Works Import existing data from shapefile Create forms from the shape file definition Modify attribute fields as necessary Modify form layout at necessary Publish, and tasks are created to contain data pushed out to the users All data in the task are pushed out to the user User updates and syncs back with office Data are merged with original data. Last update in wins shp

17 Using Imported Data

33 New Features April 2015 Enhanced Conditional Rules Copy and Paste Choice Fields Between Forms Bulk Delete of Selected Forms Copy an Existing Template into Another Project/Link Templates between projects Delete Templates Straight Line Navigation Activate RTX Within TerraFlex

34 Enhanced Conditional Rules Checklist Field Matching Use fields, sections or pages as conditional targets Numeric Comparison String Comparision Also Date and Yes/No Fields

35 Copy Choice Fields Easily copy and paste long lists between forms or from an existing list Editing long fields as raw text allows easy copy/paste within form templates or from external lists

36 Flexible Templates Copy/Link/Duplicate Templates between projects Bulk delete templates no longer needed Link the same template across projects. Editing once applies to all projects Duplicate to a different project. Duplicate within the current project.

37 Navigation Straight line navigation to selected field target Direction and distance to selected feature
