You see what you do
With Leica MobileMatriX you can always directly check the
results of your fieldwork. Either it's the graphical representation
of your measurements, survey point or the survey features with
their attributes.
With the labeling functionality you can display various things,
such as the area of the surveyed feature or the values of the
COGO measurements.
Extensibility
The innovative software architecture of ArcGIS is based on the
Component Object Model (COM) standard and is delivered as a
completely open solution for developers. Leica MobileMatriX has
been engineered to these standards and is therefore fully
customizable by end-users and developers. Any COM compliant
programming language can be used to extend Leica MobileMatriX
without limit. Users and developers can further extend the data
model to create custom measurements and computations.
Conclusion
Leica MobileMatriX provides a technology that meets what
surveyors expect from both GIS and field software. The system
offers the capabilities expected from any good surveying
software with the addition of quality information to enhance the
decision making process.
Few governments or private companies have enough resources
to measure a whole country or city by using GPS or TPS within
a justifiable time. On the other hand, surveyors are measuring
small parts of our world every day. Why not combine this data
within one system? If the data could be combined, surveyors
and GIS users could conduct their daily activities in harmony.
By actively using GIS databases, surveyors can continually
update the GIS database to reflect the most recent situation.
Leica MobileMatriX provides this technology. Furthermore,
MobileMatriX always provides same functionalities either
working with COGO, GPS or TPS sensors:
* On-the-fly (O-T-F) feature creation
» Pending feature editing
* Multiple feature editing
= Attribute editing
= Stakeout functionality (TPS and GPS)
78
= Sensor configuration (TPS and GPS)
Why Leica MobileMatriX?
Leica Geosystems has years of experience in the surveying
market and as a worldwide successful surveying company can
provide their customers a solution for extending the customers
relevant office systems into the field including GIS and CAD.
With any COM language, MobileMatriX can be customized to
meet the specific need of the client both in architecture and
functionality. Leica Geosystems developed a field software that
allows companies to improve their efficiency out in the field.
This saves time and money by improving the quality of data
directly in the field, improving customer service and workflow
and by increasing the field crew's productivity and efficiency.
Leica MobileMatriX addresses all the needs for a professional
field workflow: Controlling sensors, Editing, Collecting,
Visualization and Mapping tasks.
Leica MobileMatriX provides:
