• Compactor
  • A new machine has been added, which only requires one GNSS receiver for operation. In the mobile app, it is possible to calibrate the machine using the receiver. Simply expand the Compactor card and then select the GNSS device you want to use for calibration. The app will begin connecting to the receiver and the NTRIP service. If there is no configuration, a form will open, but if there is a configuration that is not assigned to the Compactor, a list of configurations to choose from will appear. After proceeding to the form, the user must calibrate 3 points and provide the drum diameter. It is recommended to use the GNSS receiver for calibrating points A, B, and D (more details in the documentation). For point C, which is the drum diameter, it should be provided in centimeters.

  • Compactor Operation
  • Allows users to collect data using the previously configured machine. With proper calibration, the user is able to collect information about the compacted surface using only one GNSS receiver. The data is collected into a layer type (surface), which needs to be created by providing its name and the required number of passes to complete the work. During work with the compactor machine, the user sees an additional panel corresponding to the currently selected layer type compactor. The scale on the additional panel shows the amount of compacted surface in %, allowing the user to monitor the progress of the work in real-time. The user also sees a large button indicating the current driving direction of the machine:
    • red – indicates reverse driving,
    • green – indicates forward driving.
    For tracking work, the user can specify the distance for collecting vertices (in meters), and in the tracking settings, configure the accuracy threshold (provided in cm). Tracking will stop if the measurement accuracy exceeds the specified accuracy threshold, and the user will be informed by a voice notification.

  • Compaction Report
  • Added a report with a pie chart showing the percentage of overlapping passes during material compaction by the compactor.

    Machine Management


  • Machine Management
  • The ability to create, edit, and delete machines such as Asphalt Paver, Compactor, and Excavator has been added to the website. The forms for the machines have the same attributes to be filled out as in the mobile application.

    Machines in Desktop Application


  • Machines in Desktop Application
  • The machine panel contains a list of machines available to the user. After assigning a machine to a project, a layer corresponding to that machine will appear in the layer tree.

    Added:
    • ability to enable the machine's movement trail
    • ability to enable measurements made by the machine
    • ability to filter machine measurements by date
      • start date (data filtered from the given day)
      • end date (data filtered up to the given day)
      • date range (data filtered within the given date range)

    New Bluetooth Device List View


  • New Bluetooth Device List View
  • For devices such as Asphalt Paver and Compactor, the Bluetooth device list view has been updated with information such as:
    • in range (paired) - immediately connectable - the device is on and nearby,
    • out of range (paired - not visible nearby) - connectable if the device is turned on and nearby,
    • pairing required (visible nearby - not paired) - connectable after pairing with the device.
    Manual refresh of the list is also available by clicking “Refresh List”.

    Minimum Precision Value


  • Minimum Precision Value
  • If measurement accuracy drops below a set level, the data collection process will be interrupted. The system will inform the user how many points have been collected, their ratio to the total planned measurements, and ask if the user wants to accept the performed measurement. This means the user can set an accuracy threshold below which measurements for the average value will not be acceptable.

    Data Import and Export


  • Data Import and Export

  • Import
    • Import Limit - increased the limit for imported files from 20MB to 50MB
    • Import Process - optimized the file import process
    • Smart Filtering - added the ability to enable "Smart Coordinate System Filtering" during file import:
      • if enabled: filtering by project coordinate system - only systems within the project’s country range will be listed
      • if disabled: no filtering - all coordinate systems will be listed
    Export
    • File Formats – available file formats for layer export are:
      • CSV, DXF, GeoJSON, GML, GPKG, GPX, KML, SHP, SQLITE, LandXML, KOF, SOSI
    • Specific data export formats depend on the source layer type and exported objects.

    Photo Report


  • Photo Report
    • Height System - added information about the height system on the title page of the report,
    • High Scale Warning - added a dialog warning that the scale is very large and generation may take a long time. The user must confirm this operation,
    • Object Coordinates - added information about the object coordinates on the object information page,
    • Elevation - added elevation information on the object information page.

    Other Changes and Improvements


  • Other Changes and Improvements
    • Profile Configuration - Added a configuration in profile settings: "Do not ask when deleting objects from help layers." When this option is selected, the user will not be asked if they want to delete data from help layers.
    • Object Buffer – Support for 3D geometry – for points.
    • Parallel Line – Support for 3D geometry.
    • NVDB after PQIDAT import – Fixed an error related to filling NVDB data after importing the PQIDAT file.
    • Stakeout/creating lines from points (CSV) – Fixed errors related to staking out and creating lines from points for CSV layers.
    • New fields for geotechnical layer - Added new fields in the geotechnical layer: "Totalsondering".
    • No internet connection - In case of no internet connection, if the user is on the portal page, an information page about no internet connection will be displayed. If the user is in a project, a toast message will appear at the bottom of the map indicating the lack of internet access.
    • Project name in layer tree - Added the project name in the layer tree - at the very top in the center.
    • Stakeout prefix - Added the ability to configure a prefix that will be added to a new point during staking out. The prefix is configurable by the user.
    • Sound signals and voice notifications - Added a sound signal after collecting a point from the average and voice notifications for working with IMU.
    • IMU improvements - Improved IMU operation. After losing connection with the receiver, it is enough to reconnect and then enable the IMU (after correcting the position - FIX).
    • Temporary machine data - When creating a new machine, if the user exits the form, they will be asked about temporarily saving the data, which will be loaded the next time the form is opened.
    • Automatic NTRIP reconnection - In case of losing the connection with NTRIP or the Internet, reconnection to NTRIP is reestablished (e.g., after regaining Internet connection) only for devices:
      • RigelMap i73+,
      • CHCNAV i73,
      • CHCNAV i83,
      • Asphalt Paver,
      • Compactor.
    • Machine Start - Machine start is indicated by a pulsating start button, which changes color to orange during the machine start process. If the machine starts correctly, the color will change to green, and if there is an error during the start, the button color will change to red.
