Survey crew lead in hi-vis reviewing a ZiaMap restaking form on a rugged phone at a construction site, total station in the background
For land surveyors

Nobody transcribes a field book at 6pm. Yours builds itself in the field.

Purpose built

Built for surveyors.

The mobile app captures the way field crews actually work: for sun, dirt, and one free hand.

Capture with gloves barely on, and offline.
Every record tied to a location and a time.
A chronological Field Journal that builds itself.
Signatures collected in the field.
ZiaMap restaking form signature screen with PLS license number, inspector authorization, and collected signature

Signed on site. Off your desk before the office opens.

Start to sync

A day in the field, documented as it happens.

One boundary survey on a Tuesday, from the first monument to the drive home.

7:00 AM · Crew arrives

The first monument gets photographed, not sketched. Pinned to the exact coordinate, stamped with the time, with a short note riding along.

Morning · Walking the line

Every corner, every encroachment, every fence that crosses where it should not. Photo, location, note. The Field Journal builds itself in order.

Midday · Restake on site

A restake request comes in on the construction side. The crew processes it on site and the inspector signs on the phone. The office has the signed ticket.

Back of the parcel · No signal

No coverage in the back half. Does not matter. ZiaMap holds everything on the device and syncs the moment a signal comes back.

3:00 PM · Off the clock

The crew leaves. The office already has every photo, note, and signature, organized by project. Nobody transcribes a field book at 6pm.

Surveyor FAQ

Field documentation, answered.

What is the best app for survey field notes?

The one your crew will actually use with gloves on. ZiaMap is built for survey crews: GPS-tagged photos, structured notes, and a chronological Field Journal, captured on the phone already in their pocket and synced automatically.

Can ZiaMap replace a paper field book?

Yes. It captures the same observations, monuments, conditions, and ties, then adds the location, the timestamp, and the crew member automatically. Nothing to transcribe, nothing to lose to weather.

Does ZiaMap work offline on remote sites?

Yes. Crews capture everything offline. Photos, notes, and signatures hold on the device and sync the moment a signal comes back.

What survey types does ZiaMap support?

ALTA/NSPS, boundary, construction, topographic, and as-built work, plus any specialty through custom field codes and the NSPS reference library, organized by project.

How does field data get to the office?

Automatically. When the crew has signal, every photo, note, and signature syncs to the office, organized by project. No data entry step, no manual hand-off.

Is ZiaMap built for small survey firms?

Yes. Per-firm pricing, no enterprise contracts, no multi-year lock-in, and nothing to learn that does not help in the field.

Built for surveyors. Built by one.
