Then it will be difficult with the evidence...<\/p>\n<p>With SitePlan, your photo documentation in civil engineering becomes simple, structured - and evidence-proof.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\"><b>For you this means<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>GPS-located photos - directly visible on the map, with exact coordinates<\/li>\n<li>Automatic time stamp including date<\/li>\n<li>Categorization of the images - e.g. line crossing, asphalt, difficulty<\/li>\n<li>No more photo chaos - everything stored centrally in the project<\/li>\n<li>Evidence-proof photo report created with just a few clicks<\/li>\n<li>Hardly any queries &amp; discussions - clear evidence in the event of a dispute<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">No more photos without location or context.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">No more missing receipts for billing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">With SitePlan, you can document directly where construction is taking place - digitally, comprehensibly and completely.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.siteplan.at\/en\/fotodocumentation-app\/\">Find out more about our GPS photo documentation here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Turn your PDF plan into a GPS map<\/h2>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">Imagine you are a site manager or foreman and are handed a folded paper plan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">Their task: to build roads, canals or routes. But\u00a0<b>where exactly<\/b>\u00a0the way?<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">That's how I felt a few years ago as a civil engineer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">The reality:\u00a0<b>Plans are large, difficult to read and you are constantly looking for orientation.<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">Especially directly outside on the construction site - under time pressure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\"><b>That's why we developed SitePlan.<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-build-content\">With SitePlan, you can turn any conventional PDF plan into a GPS-based map.
