Locus TrackLocus Track — powerful tools for geospatial feature data creation, editing, and geospatial data fusion

The GeoRover Locus Track extension is developed by SAIC to work with the commercial ESRI ArcGIS Desktop software (ArcView®, ArcEditor™, or ArcInfo®). The extension loads a single toolbar into the ArcMap component of ArcGIS, streamlining and enhancing the process of creating, editing, importing, and sharing data with a combination of robust and flexible interactive editing tools and data import/export wizards.

The tools present many of the most common and requested functions in a simple, efficient interface, greatly reducing the steps required to accomplish basic tasks, saving valuable time and reducing required training.

Digital Data TrackerDigital Data Tracker — field data collection tools and real-time map navigation

The GeoRover Digital Data Tracker extension is developed by SAIC to work with the commercial ESRI ArcGIS Desktop software (ArcView, ArcEditor, or ArcInfo). The GeoRover Digital Data Tracker extension is the field data collection component of the GeoRover product suite. It provides tools for easily importing track logs and waypoint logs from a variety of GPS receivers into ArcMap. Using the GPS track information, digital files (images, video clips, text) collected in the field from a variety of devices can be automatically georeferenced. Track logs and georeferenced data layers are saved as shapefiles or can be added to existing feature classes in a personal or ArcSDE® geodatabase. The result is an interactive map display with links to field data that can be exported as a web page for easy information sharing.

RPF ToolsRPF Tools — high-speed indexing, display, and management of large file-based raster product format (RPF) datasets, typically map and imagery data

GeoRover RPF Tools is an extension developed by SAIC to work with the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) commercial ArcGIS Desktop software. The GeoRover RPF Tools extension loads into the ArcMap component of ArcGIS and will function in any level of licensing (ArcView, ArcEditor, or ArcInfo).

The extension provides the capability to create map indexes from any file-based source of raster product format (RPF) data and view the index within ArcMap. Common RPF formats include Compressed ARC Digitized Raster Graphics (CADRG) and Controlled Image Base® (CIB®).

Range ToolsRange Tools — Geospatial feature data creation, editing, and ingestion of ring, ellipse, and arc feature data

The GeoRover Range Tools extension is developed by SAIC to work with the ESRI ArcGIS Desktop software (ArcView, ArcEditor, or ArcInfo). The extension loads a single toolbar into the ArcMap component of ArcGIS, providing powerful and interactive tools for creating, editing, and importing ring, ellipse, and arc feature layers.

Software Extensions and Support

* These products are included with the purchase of any of the core products listed above:

*Coordinate Viewer — custom coordinate window with real-time coordinate display

The GeoRover Coordinate Viewer extension is developed by SAIC to work with the ESRI ArcGIS Desktop software (ArcView, ArcEditor, or ArcInfo). The Coordinate Viewer extension "Coordinate Window" simultaneously displays six different coordinate system formats, optionally including datum information in real-time; display style and coordinate structure are completely customizable. Rapidly copy multiple coordinate values to the system clipboard by adding to the Coordinate Lists window.

*Zoom Tools — rapid map zooming and "go-to" capabilities

The GeoRover Zoom Tools extension is developed by SAIC to work with the ESRI ArcGIS Desktop software (ArcView, ArcEditor, or ArcInfo). The Zoom Tools extension "Zoom to Location" function will pan the map display to a specified coordinate location while zooming to a pre-defined or custom scale. A graphic can be added at zoom location to allow for easy identification. This tool can work with six different coordinate formats and hundreds of different coordinate structures.

GeoRover Software Annual Maintenance is available for purchase at a prorated fee based on a month-to-month calculation. It is intended for customers that require the annual maintenance Period of Performance (POP) to have the same date. Determine the prorated maintenance fee by calculating the amount of time between the existing POP end date and the desired POP end date. The prorated fee is the monthly maintenance rate for each whole month in the prorated time period. If there are 15 or fewer days remaining outside a whole month the fee will be calculated as a half month. If there are 16 or more days remaining outside a whole month the fee will be calculated as a whole month. Customers buying new GeoRover software licenses are required to purchase the minimum annual maintenance term to be eligible to purchase maintenance at a prorated fee.

Typical GeoRover software training classes conducted at an SAIC location or a customer location are typically one to five days in length depending on class skill level. These class topics are instructor-led, hands on training for one to five students. This training daily rate includes commutable travel equal to or less than one hour travel time from the instructor's home base office to the customer location/facility.

GeoRover Customer Site Training, half day travel**

Customers who would rather have Instructor-led training at their site can purchase a fixed price rate to cover travel time to and from a client site. Half day travel equates to greater than one hour and equal to or less than four hours travel time from the instructor's home base office to the customer location/facility.

GeoRover Customer Site Training, full day travel**

Customers who would rather have Instructor-led training at their site can purchase a fixed price rate to cover travel time to and from a client site. Full day travel equates to greater than four hours travel time from the instructor's home base office to the customer location/facility.

** Additional travel costs will be incurred for travel time to customer site. Customer site training will also require that the customer reimburse at cost for all travel expenses (transportation, lodging, per diem).
