Overview of ForeSight DXM for Windows®

ForeSight DXMTM (Data eXchange Manager) gives you better ways to view, manage and analyze your survey data. You can easily transfer data from Survey ProTM to your laptop or PC so you can use it to see your survey graphically. ForeSight DXM helps you manage project files, check data for accuracy and completeness, make simple edits and prepare data for your field survey or CAD development.

The Smart
Communication
Solution

Use it before and after your field survey

ForeSight DXM helps you manage every stage of your project. Enter control data—including geodetic information such as GPS control and localization points—on your PC to graphically preview the job. Then transfer the project to your TDS collector and head out in the field to collect your data.

Transfer the collected data back to your laptop or PC and use ForeSight DXM’s project file to efficiently manage data from several days or different sources. Error-checking routines help ensure your survey data is accurate and complete.

What’s more, the graphical views allow you to actually see the data as it was laid out. Even if you’re using an HP 48GX, ForeSight DXM can give you a map view of your project.

In the office, you can use ForeSight DXM to make simple edits to your files and ensure that your field data is clear and understandable. Check your data with basic COGO tools and use the graphical raw data view with terrestrial or GPS data. You can also adjust data using translate, rotate or scale tools and even modify geodetic systems and localizations to readjust coordinates.

Integrated with the tools you use

ForeSight DXM works with the surveying hardware and software tools you use—at the office and in the field. You can import files from most data collectors. Import and export TDS job, coordinate and raw data files, plus TDS point lists, DXF, DC and text files. And since TDS has been paving the way for the new universal surveying file format, ForeSight DXM works with LandXML data files.
