GeoAce – Visual Surveying

Below you will find a complete overview of the General Laser GeoAce Software package.

Revolutionizing Precision Mapping with GeoAce – Visual Surveying

GeoAce – Visual Surveying is transforming the way professionals perform precise spatial measurements. By turning your smartphone or tablet into a centimeter-accurate surveying system, GeoAce eliminates the need for bulky GNSS receivers or total stations. Utilizing advanced Visual SLAM positioning and Augmented Reality (AR) technology, this intelligent app delivers precise 3D spatial data directly through your device’s video stream — even in environments where GNSS signals are weak or unavailable.

Whether you’re working indoors, underground, or under dense tree coverage, GeoAce – Visual Surveying ensures consistent, high-accuracy performance. It’s the ultimate blend of simplicity, efficiency, and professional-grade precision for surveyors, engineers, and construction professionals.

How GeoAce – Visual Surveying Works

GeoAce – Visual Surveying uses Visual SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) to determine your smartphone’s position in real time. By leveraging Augmented Reality (AR), users can visualize and collect accurate 3D spatial data directly on their screens. This makes it easy to capture and annotate complex geometries without relying solely on GNSS positioning.

Even when satellite signals fail — in tunnels, forests, or urban canyons — GeoAce maintains centimeter-level accuracy through a combination of inertial technology and photogrammetry. You can also connect external GNSS receivers to further extend the app’s versatility and precision.

Key Features of GeoAce – Visual Surveying

• Precise 3D Data Collection in AR – Capture and map spatial data directly from your mobile device’s video feed.

• Full Import/Export Capability – Compatible with GeoJSON, SHP, DXF, DWG, DGN, GPX, PDF, CSV, OSM, and Smallworld formats.

• External Device Support – Integrates with GNSS receivers and even the Apple Watch.

• Visual Stakeout & Sketch Tools – Easily mark out construction points and generate digital drawings.

• Works Anywhere – Perform accurate measurements without GNSS, even in obstructed or underground locations.

Applications of GeoAce – Visual Surveying

GeoAce is designed for a broad range of professional applications, including:

• Civil engineering documentation and area measurement

• Landscape design and garden planning

• Construction project billing and validation

• Digital mapping and object measurement

• Utility and infrastructure planning

Instead of waiting for specialized surveyors or costly GNSS equipment, teams can instantly document and measure with GeoAce – Visual Surveying, saving both time and money while ensuring accurate results.

Augmented Reality GNSS Rover – A Game-Changer in Modern Surveying

The Augmented Reality GNSS Rover mode in GeoAce – Visual Surveying combines GNSS, inertial, and photogrammetric data for seamless operation. You can measure features such as building corners, trench pipes, or manhole covers from a safe distance of up to 10 meters.

When GNSS signals weaken, the system automatically switches to an inertial/photogrammetric hybrid mode — ensuring uninterrupted precision surveying. Depending on your device, distances of over 100 meters can be bridged without GNSS reception, eliminating the need for total stations or laser range finders.

Why Choose GeoAce – Visual Surveying

With GeoAce, you’re not just adopting a tool — you’re embracing a smarter, faster, and more cost-effective way to survey.

Top 5 Reasons to Choose GeoAce – Visual Surveying:

1. Centimeter-accurate surveying without relying on traditional GNSS or total stations.

2. Augmented Reality visualization enhances understanding of spatial data.

3. Seamless indoor and outdoor operation, even in GNSS-deprived areas.

4. Cost and time efficiency, reducing the need for specialized surveyors.

5. Versatile compatibility with multiple file formats and external GNSS devices.

By using GeoAce – Visual Surveying, professionals in construction, architecture, landscaping, and utilities can streamline their entire workflow with unprecedented flexibility and precision.

Boost Efficiency with GeoAce and GNSS Integration

Although GeoAce – Visual Surveying doesn’t require GNSS for accurate results, it allows optional GNSS receiver integration to enhance performance in open environments. This hybrid capability makes it one of the most versatile surveying tools available today — ideal for any setting, from open construction sites to subterranean tunnels.

File Format Compatibility for Seamless Data Exchange

The app’s extensive import/export compatibility ensures smooth integration into your existing workflow. Easily manage data in popular formats like GeoJSON, DWG, DXF, DGN, SHP, GPX, CSV, and PDF, or sync your results with mapping and GIS tools.
