GeoMax Releases All-In-One Office Software for Topographical Data

Widnau, SWITZERLAND: GeoMax, professional surveying and construction product provider, announced today the X-PAD Office Fusion, the all-in-one office software combining data from multiple sensors into one easy-to-use interface

X-PAD Office Fusion software manages, combines and processes data from GNSS receivers, total stations, laser scanners and other sensors in one single environment whether from GeoMax or any other provider in the market. There is no need to export the data from one programme to another, and X-PAD also offers all CAD features.

“The choice to use X-PAD Office Fusion is due precisely to its ability to handle different data and process: traditional topographic data with both GPS and laser scanners processes. X-PAD Office Fusion has made it easy to integrate captured data with GeoMax Zoom 300 and those acquired through photo modeling to get a complete 3D model of inaccessible areas, including surveys with traditional laser scanners,” said Federico Ferrari, Department of Architecture, University of Ferrara. “The ability to extract drawings directly from X-Fusion PAD without using other CAD products, including through the bubble view, makes it an extremely fast and practical product, even for those who do not have specific surveying skills, such as archaeologists like us. A simple and intelligent interface and a great 3D data management engine make X-PAD Office Fusion a truly unique product and easy-to-use and easy-to-teach, enabling us to give more time for critical analysis than using the software itself.”

Simple operations for increased productivity

The new software handles a multitude of different types of data: measurements, coordinates, drawings and point clouds. Large quantities of data can be managed in the fastest way with maximum accuracy. The software automatically detects the common points between the point clouds and performs a first rough alignment.

The Bundle Adjustment feature performs the final and accurate alignment in order to reduce errors. Personalised reports are then created with little effort.

“With X-PAD Office Fusion, our customers now only need one software solution to handle any data from any sensor,” said Romy Koch, GeoMax product manager. “It includes many unique features to help customers to increase their efficiency.”
