- Open the app and press Demo site in section 1 to load 42 sample ground shots — the TIN and contours appear instantly.
- Move the cursor over the plan: the readout bar shows the live interpolated level at any position.
- In section 5, enter a formation level and press Calculate — cut and fill in m³, with red/blue shading on the plan.
- In section 10, press LandXML (N E Z) — that file copies to a USB stick and imports straight into the instrument.
- Then load your own points — paste a CSV or load the raw GSI off the total station — and do the same on a real job.
