Android stakeout from DXF drawings

Tap a DXF point. Get bearing and distance.

SurveyDXF replaces the paper-and-calculator workflow for common field stakeout. Open a DXF on your phone, set your total station coordinates, tap the point you want to stake, and read the bearing and distance instantly.

Always verify bearing, distance, coordinates, elevation, and drawing completeness before using results for final staking.

Use your finger to select the point or geometry you want to stake from the DXF drawing.

Stake with bearing and distance

Read bearing and horizontal distance directly on the phone, then rotate the total station to the point.

Field features

Built for surveyors using drawings on site.

DXF viewer for stakeout

Open DXF drawings, pan and zoom, control layers, and inspect CAD geometry from the phone.

Bearing and distance readout

Set station coordinates once, then tap drawing points to get HA and horizontal distance.

Station resection

Compute your station position from two known points and measured distances, with optional angle quality checks.

Snap and save points

Use drawing snap points, store stakeout points, and keep a point list for the job.

Reports and export

Export saved points to CSV or PDF for checking, sharing, and office records.

Level book

Record level runs and export level-book reports from the same field tool.

DXF compatibility warnings

The app warns when unsupported CAD objects are skipped so users can verify drawings before staking.
