Manage Basemaps - Tripod Data Systems SURVEY PRO User Manual

Manage Basemaps

Once the basemap files are stored on the data collector, they must be
added to the current job before they can be viewed in the map view.
1. To add basemaps, open the Main Map View by tapping the
button in the command bar from the Main Menu.
• Before you can use a basemap in
Survey Pro, you need to copy the
appropriate basemap files from a PC to
the same directory where your current
job is located. If the basemap files are
stored in a different directory and then
added to the current job, the files will
be copied to the job's directory.
• If you use the Save As routine and save
the current job to a new directory, any
basemaps associated with that job will
be copied to the new location.
2. From the main Map View, tap the
button to open the Manage Basemaps
screen shown here.
3. Tap the Add... button. This will open a
new screen where you can select the
basemap that you want to add to the
current job.
4. Once a basemap is added, it will appear in
the list in the Manage Basemaps screen.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to add any additional
basemaps.
