Field to Office Workflows for Survey Data

Join the Looq team each month for practical tips and field to office workflow for survey data supporting surveying, T&D and telecom engineering, and utilities. Register for upcoming live sessions or watch past recordings on demand.

Latest recording qPole · PLA-ready pole models

Introduction to qPole

qPole turns one walk of a pole line into a measured, classified 3D model of every pole. Your crew captures on foot from the street or right-of-way and models each pole in less than 10 minutes, with no return trips. Attributes measured from what’s actually in the field complement what you already know about each pole, and export to SPIDAcalc, O-Calc Pro or CSV.

Frequently Asked Questions

What surveying and mapping use cases and workflows does the Looq Platform support?

The Looq Platform supports a wide range of surveying and mapping workflows including topographic surveys, linear corridor projects, and high accuracy georeferencing using PPK with CORS correction services, ground control points, or local base stations with static RINEX observations. In addition, our webinar library covers flexible control setup, accurate georeferencing for CAD and GIS workflows, consistent repeatable results without extensive field setup, and virtual surveying capabilities through qSurvey. Find these sessions under the Surveying tag above.

Does the Looq Platform integrate with AutoCAD Civil 3D and Trimble Business Center?

Yes and we have dedicated webinars for both. “Working with Looq Data in AutoCAD Civil 3D” covers how to create breaklines and surfaces, manage coordinate control, reduce noise from vegetation and vehicles, work with feature codes, and standardize exports for clean data delivery. Similarly, “Working with Looq Data in TBC” covers how to use Looq’s survey-grade point clouds and orthomosaics directly within Trimble Business Center workflows for topographic mapping and engineering design without conversion or manual preparation. Find them under the Surveying or Technology tags.

What T&D and telecom use cases does the Looq Platform support?

The Looq Platform supports transmission and distribution and telecom engineering workflows including overhead power line capture, pole geometry and attribute modeling, PLA-ready model creation, and make-ready engineering workflows. As a result, our webinar library covers capture workflows for overhead power and the qPole introduction. Find these sessions under the Engineering tag.

Does Looq AI have webinars on qPole and PLA-ready pole modeling?

Yes. “Introduction to qPole” walks through the full workflow from field capture to PLA-ready export including importing construction libraries, defining pole geometry and attributes, and exporting to SPIDAcalc, PLS-CADD, and O-Calc Pro. Watch the recording at the top of this page or under the Engineering tag.

What are best practices for field capture, data sharing, and export with the Looq Platform?

“Field Capture Do’s and Don’ts” covers proper capture workflows for all site types including what to avoid and what can cause issues with automated processing, relevant for surveyors, civil engineers, T&D engineers, and telecom professionals. Additionally, “Sharing Data with the Looq Platform” covers how to export point clouds in LAZ format, nadir imagery in TIFF, and panoramas in JPG, and how to share data securely with colleagues and clients in the Looq web platform. Find them under the Technology tag above.

Can the Looq Platform be used for underground manhole and vault capture?

Yes. “Working with Looq for Manhole and Vault Capture” covers best practices for underground field capture. From there, learn how to visualize manhole and vault datasets in 3D from end to end. Find it under the Surveying and Engineering tags above.
