Hi guys I am Isaac working at karratha earthmoving. I really like the toggle background map function which alan sharp showcased on last training session. However i have noticed that I can't use the function on MGA50 coordinate system. We have local grid called karrratha 94 it seems to work fine on that grid but if i open up a MGA50… (Show more)

Rotating a survey to a different bearing

I have imported a survey into TBC direct from a .job file on a TSC3 controller and am wanting to rotate the survey to a different bearing, is this possible without having access to the "transform survey points" command? (only have a survey intermediate licence)

If you are using Trimble Access on your TSC3 you can alter the coordinates and the azimuth in the JOB file right in the data collector for your control points giving them the correct ones using the Point Manager. This would allow you to export the JOB file into TBC with the correct information and not have to transform the data.

SCS900 and SW - Sta/Offset only shown when stakeout selected

I have recently updated a T7 and a T10 with all windows updates as well as updating the firmware for SCS900 (3.74.18301.18) and Siteworks (1.11.19302.221). Now when either program is launched on either device, project/receiver setup complete, and corridor has been selected, I do not see any station or offset (nor ref station or offset) until I… (Show more)

Thanks Steve. The equipment I made this post for has not been used since that day due to weather but it sounds like we are mobilizing tomorrow. I will reply with more information.

Surface Properties Anamoly

Please see attached. 1. Surface Prperties -1 refers to OGL as of 191218 2. Surface Prperties - 2 refers to OGL + Assumed OGL. 1 is a subset of 2. If you observed the Max and Min Elevation in properties tab, (1) has higher / lower and incorrect values. Values in (2) are correct. Also verified from other software. I generated contours… (Show more)

Siteworks Emulator

Is there a way to set the Siteworks emulator to run without being in full screen? It would be nice to have other windows open while testing.

Feature Request for Siteworks - Logging static data for UAV PPK

G'day Alan, I'm not sure if this is the right place for Siteworks requests but could you kindly forward this through to the Siteworks boffins? We have a newly acquired PPK drone and would like to easily log static data to our rover using Siteworks rather than exiting to the web UI on the receiver. We have data logging enabled. Our proposed… (Show more)

Hi Ben, Thanks for the feature request. This is indeed something that I have heard requests for to be able to have a start/stop static logging function rather than the existing set time function. It is in our development backlog to be considered for addition in a future release. This is a great explanation of the use and utility of such a…

DEPTH OF A 3D LINE

is there a simple report or function that can be ran to show the average depth of a line below a certain surface? for example if i want to just create a line from invert of structure A to invert of structure B and report the average depth rather than going through the whole workflow of creating a utility takeoff.

Earthworks infield design

In earthworks when I am doing an infield surface design, why can't I make a section to the left of my measured alignment? It doesn't let you add to the left, negative. You can only create a design from left to right not from the center to the left.

Hi Kirk Sounds like your doing stuff right, just need one small tap more to the screen. When creating a profile, it has multiple points, and after pressing "Next" you have to select which of these points refer to the alignment you created. Just hit the small "arrow" and you will see the alignment switch between the points in the profile. First…

Processing Feature Codes - curves are short line segments

I am trying to set up TBC for field to finish design surveys. When I process the field work using feature codes and export the file to a .dwg the linework is all 2d polylines. At this point I then explode the 2d polylines and the curves that were observed in the field (ie: curves in curb lines, sidewalks....) are not arcs in CAD, they are broken… (Show more)

I just tried it with two different sets of line codes. One with points at different elevations (real world application) and one with all the elevations set to 100. The set at 0 elevation comes into CAD as curves. The set at different elevations comes into CAD as short line segements, not curves. Short line segments between points 3-4-5 (points…
