Collect
High-accuracy point, line, and polygon data collection


Overview
The Collect workflow is the foundation of FastXY. Use your mobile device GNSS location or Eos Positioning Systems' high-accuracy GNSS Bluetooth receiver for survey-grade precision. No internet connection needed.
Whether you're mapping assets, collecting field data, or building GIS datasets, the Collect workflow provides all the tools you need - completely free. Features include attribute pick lists with computational operations, barcode/QR code input, 3D basemap, and up to 50Hz data collection speed.
Key Features
Flexible GNSS Options
Use your mobile device GNSS or connect Eos Positioning Systems' high-accuracy GNSS Bluetooth receiver. No internet connection needed.
Points, Lines & Polygons
Collect any geometry type with a 3D basemap featuring terrain and buildings. Import/export CSV and GIS data in many formats.
Smart Data Entry
Attribute pick lists with computational operations on attributes. Barcode and QR code input for fast, accurate field data entry.
Smart Datum Detection
Real-time datum transformation for RTK, SBAS, and autonomous GNSS. GEOID model support for survey-grade elevations. Up to 50Hz collection speed.
How It Works
- 01
Create a Layer
Set up a new layer with the geometry type (point, line, or polygon) and define your attribute fields.
- 02
Connect Your GPS
Use your phone's GPS or pair an external GNSS receiver for higher accuracy. FastXY auto-detects your receiver's datum.
- 03
Collect Features
Tap to collect points, trace lines by walking, or define polygon boundaries. Fill in attributes as you go.
- 04
Export Your Data
Export to Shapefile, CSV, KML, GeoJSON, or other formats. Share via email, cloud storage, or transfer directly.
