 Survey Maker
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 allows you to enter data ranging from Model Maker type
files, to various electronic field books as well as manual input into
the different calculation pages. All relevant correction factors are
used during calculations and limits of error calculations is applied
where necessary. Calculate various survey related functions or use it to
generate a Surveyor General Diagram, working plan or general plan with
ease.
SURVEY MAKER MODULES
Why modules?
- So that each
user can customize his own package and thus saving cost by not having to
buy un necessary/unused software functionality.
Module 1 - BASIC SURVEY
CALCULATIONS
|
Required Modules: -
|
 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.
Module 2 - CADASTRAL
FUNCTIONS
|
Required Modules: 1
|
 This
module allows for the complete method needed to produce Surveyor General diagrams as
produced by professional land surveyors. This module is customizable to
be used in any province of South Africa and in countries like Namibia,
Zimbabwe. From the working plan, to the
general plan and individual diagrams compiling the final result has
never been so easy before.
Module 3 - LEVEL FIELD
BOOK REDUCTION
|
Required Modules: 1
|
The levelling 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.
Module 4 -
MINING CALCULATIONS & REPORTS
|
Required Modules: 1
|
The mining modules is our latest addition to Survey
Maker and caters for the specific needs of open cast as well as under
ground mine surveyors. All calculations are done according to
specification and reports are presented in a manner suitable for various
governing body specifications. This module is still under development.
Module 5 -
WGS84 CONVERSIONS WITH ORION
|
Required Modules: 1
|
The WGS84 Orion module is there for those users who
need the capability to use ORION software to convert from the old Cape
Clark datum to WGS84. This is only applicable to South Africa.
