MicroSurvey built FieldGenius for Android from the ground up to exploit these native benefits, avoiding a clunky port of legacy desktop software. Key Features and Functional Capabilities 1. Broad Hardware Agnosticism
For years, field data collection meant lugging around a dedicated data collector or a rugged Windows handheld. Those days are fading. With the rise of high-precision GNSS receivers and robotic total stations, the logical next step was to bring the power of field software to the Android ecosystem.
Your office software (Civil 3D, MicroSurvey, Carlson, etc.) will read Fieldgenius data without conversion headaches.
The benefits of using Fieldgenius for Android are numerous, and some of the most significant advantages include:
If your firm is still utilizing legacy Windows Mobile or Windows CE data collectors, upgrading to Android offers massive operational advantages:
This neutrality prevents vendor lock-in. Surveying firms can mix and match their existing hardware fleet with new Android controllers, saving thousands of dollars in equipment upgrades. 2. Intuitive Map-Based Interface Fieldgenius For Android
Rapidly store points, compute intersections, and check historical evidence against visual DXF maps.
FieldGenius for Android Update 1.8.2 - Emlid Community Forum
As of May 2025, MicroSurvey unified the platform; the standalone Android app is now simply called , supporting both Android and Windows with a consistent user interface . 🛠️ Key Technical Features
The software replaces text-heavy menus with a map-centric visual workflow. Every action—from selecting points to drawing linework—is executed directly on the data collector’s screen.
The defining feature of FieldGenius is its graphical interface. Unlike legacy data collectors that rely on text-based lists, FieldGenius defaults to a Map View. MicroSurvey built FieldGenius for Android from the ground
FieldGenius includes a dedicated to create, open, delete, and archive projects. Each project defines coordinate systems, units, and instrument settings. You can back up projects to the cloud or external storage and restore them on another Android device for seamless continuity.
You may need to enable "Install from Unknown Sources" in your Android settings to complete the setup [2, 5]. Registration:
The software supports an extensive library of RTK GNSS receivers and total stations. It allows firms to mix and match hardware brands, including: Leica Geosystems 2. Data Visualization and Mapping
