Everything LocateIQ does in the field

Field Photos

Photos that live with your data, not in a camera roll.

• Geotagged photo capture tied to survey points
• Photos attached to AGM (above-ground marker) points, shown as photo markers on the map
• Photo thumbnails on map symbology so you identify assets visually at a glance
• Photos sync to ArcGIS as feature attachments and to Subsurface Maps
• Wi-Fi-only upload option so field crews don't burn cellular data
• Queued/offline photo upload that resumes when connectivity returns

Works Directly With Your ArcGIS Account

Your maps, your layers, your schema — LocateIQ signs into ArcGIS as you.

• Sign in with your own ArcGIS credentials (OAuth) — no data broker in between
• Reads your existing web maps and layers, honoring your symbology
• Two-way editing of points, lines, and polygons in your hosted feature layers
• Picture-marker symbology imported from your web map so field symbols match your desktop
• Per-layer field mapping so captured attributes land in your existing schema
• Layer selection and visibility control in the field
• Editable-layer targeting — choose which layers receive points vs lines
• Company-level web map configuration pushed to devices

Works Directly With Your Subsurface Maps Account

First-class Subsurface Maps support, not an afterthought.

• Sign in with existing Subsurface Maps credentials
• Layer browsing and permissions that mirror your DM setup
• Point, line, and polygon capture into DM layers
• Photo attachments to DM features
• Sync queue with retry, conflict handling, and visible pending counts

Exports

Get your data out in whatever shape the next person needs.

• KMZ export, including photos, for sharing with anyone who has Google Earth
• CSV export of survey data with full attributes
• GeoJSON for boundaries and geometry
• Line summary exports with lengths and quality scores
• Per-ticket export packaging

Security & Encryption

The short version — the detail lives on its own pages.

• Encrypted local database on the device
• Multi-factor authentication support
• Row-level security enforced at the database, not just the app
• Encrypted transport for all cloud sync

Ticket Associations (811 / One-Call)

Tickets are projects, not tags.

• Tickets as first-class projects with their own data
• Ticket boundary polygons on the map for locate context
• Survey data organized per ticket
• Ticket status and due-date tracking
• Per-ticket photos, exports, and line summaries
• Public share links so contractors and stakeholders can view a ticket without an account

Survey-Grade Positioning

Centimeter work needs centimeter tools.

• RTK corrections over NTRIP from any caster
• Bluetooth GNSS receivers and mock-location providers
• Real-time fix type, accuracy, and correction age
• Antenna height compensation
• Capture Lock — block points that don't meet your accuracy standard (HRMS, VRMS, fix type, correction age, staking distance), configurable per gate

Locate Mode

Built for tracing utilities, not just dropping pins.

• Purpose-built utility-locating perspective and heading-follow camera
• Audio guidance while tracing a line
• LocateIQ scoring — a per-point rating from signal, compass, null, current, GNSS, and CFC inputs
• AGM association bonus for points captured at above-ground markers
• Distance-from-last-point staking alerts

Coordinate Systems & Accuracy

Defensible coordinates, not just close ones.

• Full EPSG support with per-project coordinate reference configuration
• HTDP time-dependent transformations
• Geoid model support for orthometric elevations
• NAD83 epoch handling
• Grid transformations with cached transforms
• Transformation metadata saved with every point for defensibility

Offline & Sync

No bars, no problem.

• Full offline capture — no signal required
• Automatic sync when connectivity returns, with configurable interval
• Pending-item counts visible at a glance
• Conflict handling on two-way edits

Team & Administration

Standards set once, enforced everywhere.

• Multi-company support with complete data isolation
• Seat-based licensing
• Web settings console — push capture standards, units, and scoring configuration to every device
• Company-locked settings — enforce standards centrally; field users see them locked
• Per-user quality ratings and activity history

Works With the Hardware You Already Carry

LocateIQ runs on the phones and receivers your crews own today — no proprietary hardware lock-in.
