OnStation vs. GPS Rovers “You can use your phone or tablet to find your location without using expensive GPS equipment.” — Daniel Wayne, HT4 Get a Demo Start Free Trial OnStation is a collaborative digital stationing platform with a mobile app that gives everyone on a project live station/offset within 5' feet. While GPS rovers provide enhanced accuracy, availability is limited to specifically trained personnel. What’s themain difference? OnStationLIVE STATION OFFSET IN THE FIELD Real-time GPS Stationing: Instantly know your location on the jobsite in reference to station, mile marker, lat/long, LRS.Accessibility: Everyone has instant access to location within 5’ without expensive equipment or extensive training.Instant Conversion: Instantly convert STA with offset to MM, LL, or LRS.Pricing: Subscription pricing for unlimited projects. Find Your Project GPS RoverPORTABLE GPS RECEIVER Enhanced GPS Accuracy: Required for specific job functionsAccessibility: Not accessible to all workers, limited number of units on the jobsite, and requires trained personnel to operate.Manual Conversion: Station offset and converting STA to MM, LL, or LRS are calculated manually.Cost: Requires significant financial investment in hardware.

APEX Engineering Project Manager “We started training our inspectors on GPS Rovers, but they’re expensive units and we don’t want more than one unit on a project at any given time. OnStation eliminates the need for constant access to the rovers.” View Case Study STA: 1786+45 14R = MM: 461.991 = LL: 30.380179,-95.067204 = LRS: 461.458 2L = STA: 1786+45 14R = MM: 461.991 = LL: 30.380179,-95.067204 = LRS: 461.458 2L = STA: 1786+45 14R = MM: 461.991 = LL: 30.380179,-95.067204 = LRS: 461.458 2L = From the Field “OnStation has made the strain and complications of physically stationing jobs easy. It has made my job as a surveyor easy when it comes to showing PM's how the job looks.” Joshua Macki, Project Manger “You immediately know both your physical and plan location, can flag or highlight a particular portion of the work and communicate the highlighted issue to the team.” Tate Blackletter, Project Manager “There are several jobs at different locations and if someone has a problem they can send a picture to the company engineer who can assess the situation without a time-consuming trip to the jobsite.” Pete Garcia, Project Manager “It allows anyone to install an app on their device, find their project and have stationing access to plans.” David Stewart, Field Technician “I enjoy the simplicity of navigating the app and the utility it provides in the field. It helps visualize projects in a totally different way.” Dakota Riffle, Construction “I can find my location from the safety of my truck without being in live traffic or walking around an active job site.” OnStation User FREE Stationing Training Our stationing experts created these training videos to help individuals in the industry learn about the most important aspect of a job… Location!GO TO FREE COURSES ▶ Featured Introduction To Stationing Stationing is the project locationing system that allows individuals to budget, design, and construct roadway projects.
