Staking
Navigate to features with precision GNSS guidance
The Staking workflow helps you navigate to predetermined locations with high-precision GNSS guidance. Import design points, property corners, or any georeferenced features, then use FastXY to guide you directly to each location.
Perfect for construction layout, utility locating, property corner recovery, and any field work where you need to find specific coordinates on the ground.
