MicroSurvey FieldGenius was designed for Land Surveying, Civil Egineering, Seismic Surveying, and Construction Staking to provide unequaled data collection simplicity and field calculating performance.>
The Graphic User interface allows you to build the drawing as you measure, providing you with instant visual confirmation of accurate data collection and survey calculations. It includes the ability to draw linework as you measure from point to point without the need for cumbersome line coding.
FieldGenius takes advantage of the Windows CE touch screen capability by allowing you to tap points and lines in your drawing to open toolbars with all the function you need instantly. Functions that are not available directly from FieldGenius graphics display are available from available from a simple main menu which is organized by task. Please spend some time looking over this document or watch our movies to become familiar with the functionality of FieldGenius.
Once you’ve collected your data in the field you can export it directly out of FieldGenius using many different file types such as ASCII, DXF, XML, SDR, or ESRI Shapefiles. If you have MicroSurvey Genius raw file is based on the popular TDS RW5 format which means you probably already have software that can import this raw file type and process it. This means you don’t need to purchase expensive products to process your FieldGenius projects.
Importing data into FieldGenius is just as easy as exporting. You can import ASCII, XML and DXF files directly into FieldGenius.
Our instrument control is easy to use and very powerful. Access to your instrument controls is available on the main interface at all times so there is no need to swap to other screens or menus.
As always, MicroSurvey welcomes your comments and suggestions for our products.

- Projects are interchangeable between the desktop version and your data collector.
- It's Easy to Use
- The Tap'n Survey interface allows you to take shots, stake points, edit coords, stake a line, or any of the things you do all day long. A single graphics tap takes you immediately to the function you want.
- Our logical icons and real toolbars are easy to use and understand. Larger buttons for common commands make it easy to pick on the screen. Learn more from our movies. You get more work done faster with our advanced interface that skips all the complicated menus.
- Code-free Connectivity
- Line connectivity is not feature code dependent. A single line may be made up of points having different feature codes. FieldGenius Linework Collection Example Preset codes are not required. Best linework available! FieldGenius supports multiple lines using the same feature code. Supports quick and easy line editing. Arcs, Lines, and Splines are all fully 3D and can all be used in the same figure.
- Painless Data Transfer
- MicroSurvey's ActiveSync support automatically connects with FieldGenius to show you all the projects on your device. Upload and download with a mouse click. FieldGenius uses RW5 files for raw data. This allows you to transfer your raw files into any modern surveying software.

- Advanced Autodesk Land Desktop Support
- Painless way to get your data directly from FieldGenius into LDD. NO other software is needed. Just export directly from FieldGenius to an FBK file, then import into the Survey module. Our transfer sends both coordinates and linework into LDD. Linework comes in as LDD Figures to make them easy to work with. Coordinates are true LDD coordinates that list & print as normal. A Huge time saver - no file conversions - just import directly from your data collector!
- Advanced Display
- Improves the ease and speed of your survey data collection Details of each shot can be displayed in a small pop up window in your drawing (HA, VA, SD, Next Point ID and Target Height)
- View coordinates, drawing info and computation results using the display Added color control, view filtering and point symbols
- Contouring, Surfacing, and Volume Calculations
- Create accurate contours in your hand. One tap functionality. Modeling could not be easier. Automatic support for breaklines.
- Superior Data Import
- More data imports than other software. Our RW5 support allows you to take an RAW file out of a TDS data collector and reprocess it into coordinates. DXF direct import including lines, arcs, polylines, points, text and 3D faces. LandXML direct import. Includes LandXML alignments, parcels, points and surfaces.
- Custom toolbars
- Custom instrument control toolbars for GPS and total stations on the main interface minimizes the need to dig into menus for common toggles and settings. Everything is at your fingertips
- One-Tap measure and store shot functionality
- When in SideShot mode, the big measure button makes taking a shot easy. Just tap the screen with your finger and it takes a shot. No searching for the Enter key or a small button on the screen. Our "shot" button is about the size of your thumb!
