Control points pinned to the grid
Every control station is a structured pin. Northing, easting, level and GNSS or total station reference attach to the pin, not to a paper log.

Setting out without the retyping
Grid lines, pegs and reference points capture on the phone in the field. Outputs feed straight into the site engineering record.
Setting out note icon
As-set evidence that stays current
As-set checks against design drawings pin to each peg. Deviations flag against tolerance before the pour, not after.
Setting out attachment icon
Quality checks in one place
Every setting out sign-off carries a timestamp, engineer and photo. Clients and checking engineers have the record ready for ITP review.

Setting out works better when every control point is a pin

The shared map for setting out surveys

A single highway contract can carry thousands of control points, setting out pegs and as-set checks across miles of alignment. Engineers lose hours to paper field books that nobody can read, coordinate lists that scatter across laptops and tolerance checks that never reach the checking engineer. Pin Drop pins every control point once and keeps every check on the pin, where it belongs.
Testimonials

Used by civil engineers and construction quality managers

Contractors running setting out, ITP checks and quality programmes rely on shared, location-based control records to keep works defensible and pours on schedule.
