Available in the web platform

Equipment Location Confirmation

A photograph of equipment is more useful when the next person can also tell where it belongs on the site.

Client & survey

Who it was designed for

Field technicians and reviewers documenting service equipment and other site items.

Assigned technicians and authorized reviewers use the confirmation workflow. Shared or client report content remains subject to its existing delivery and access rules.

What it does

Locate service equipment, disconnects and other site items on the model, with linked photographs. Confirmed locations appear beside the photos in reports and as callouts in the model.

How it fits your workflow

STEP 1

Identify the item

Open the relevant equipment confirmation for the authorized job.

STEP 2

Confirm the evidence

Associate the location and supporting photograph with the current model.

STEP 3

Review the callout

Use the confirmed location in the model and report.

Illustrated workflow. These cards explain the process; they are not screenshots of a customer project.

The practical value

Linked photographs and confirmed model callouts help connect equipment evidence to the physical survey. Explicit unknown states prevent a missing location from being mistaken for a confirmed one.

A concrete use case

The team confirms a disconnect’s location and supporting photograph. The resulting report callout helps the designer follow the equipment arrangement.

Requirements and limits

Unknown and unconfirmed locations remain explicit.

A replacement model requires locations to be reconfirmed; old markers do not silently become valid on new geometry.
