Survey

The survey page is filled with a map and several controls on and around the map. A screenshot of the survey page is shown below. The projects page also contains the map and has some extra functionalities. 


Map controls

The table below lists the controls embedded on or around the map. It is indicated in italics if the functionality is only available on the projects page. Not all controls are directly visible, and the Actions menu in the top bar will give access to a number of the options described in the table below.

Survey Lines

Enable/disable survey lines that can be used as reference points when doing a survey. The line spacing and angle of the survey lines can be specified in meters or feet, depending on the unit settings.
The survey line settings are stored on the detector and will remain active across reboots of the detector.
