Locus GIS Offline Land Survey

Conduct professional land surveys and GIS fieldwork with Locus GIS Offline Land Survey, the comprehensive mobile mapping solution designed for surveyors, environmental scientists, foresters, and planners working in the field without reliable connectivity.

Work Anywhere, Anytime with Offline Capability Capture and manage geodata in remote locations where internet access is limited or unavailable. Your entire project stays synchronized across devices through third-party cloud storage integration with Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive. Collect points, lines, and polygons using motion recording, location averaging, projection methods, and precise coordinate entry. Attach photos, videos, audio recordings, and sketches directly to survey points for comprehensive field documentation.

Centimeter-Accurate GNSS Integration Connect to external GNSS receivers from industry leaders including Trimble, Emlid, Stonex, ArduSimple, and South for RTK-corrected positioning. The built-in NTRIP client delivers centimeter-level accuracy when you need it most. Monitor satellite signals with the skyplot tool, track accuracy metrics (HRMS, VRMS, HDOP, PDOP), and enforce minimum tolerance thresholds before recording data. Manage multiple receivers and configure antenna phase center settings for specialized surveying requirements.

Flexible Data Collection and Management Design custom survey forms with automatic point numbering, text and numeric fields, date/time stamps, checkboxes, dropdown selections, and GNSS-specific data fields. Organize your work into projects and layers with intelligent templates for rapid setup. Import ESRI Shapefiles for editing in the field, then export results to SHP or CSV formats. Export complete projects directly to QGIS for advanced analysis and reporting. Search, filter, and style attribute data with conditional rule-based formatting tied to field values.

Unmatched Map Flexibility Choose from hundreds of online and offline map sources including WMS/WMTS services, MBTiles, SQLite, and MapsForge formats. Support for over 4,200 global and local coordinate reference systems—from WGS84 and Web Mercator to UTM and regional projections—ensures accuracy across jurisdictions. Download maps for offline use or stream from live sources depending on your mission needs.

Proven Across Industries Forestry teams use it for tree mapping and vegetation surveys. Environmental professionals conduct faunal surveys, biodiversity monitoring, and habitat assessments. Urban planners map infrastructure, water systems, and green spaces. Agricultural specialists establish land boundaries and soil characterization. Energy, mining, and construction teams rely on Locus GIS Offline Land Survey for reliable field operations at scale.
