Version 1.1.8 is a major feature update delivering advanced GNSS receiver management, Helmert transformations with live local coordinates, robust NTRIP profile handling, and streamlined cloud upload workflows.
Tip: You can now perform over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates directly via the app! If your SDX-PocketScan device requires an update, you'll be guided through the process upon connection.
New & Enhanced
GNSS Management 2.0
- Dedicated Dashboard: Introduced a comprehensive, full-screen GNSS Receiver Management page displaying live data for License status, Position, Tilt, Battery, Device Info, connected serial number, and GNSS timestamp.
- OTA Firmware Updates: Fully integrated BLE over-the-air firmware updates. The app automatically checks for required updates on connect, guides you through the process, and verifies the installation after the device reboots.
- License Integration: System capabilities (Scanning, Surveying) are now governed by your SDX-PocketScan license type (Pole, Mapping, Mapping Pro, Demo), fetched directly via the device serial number. You can easily view your license status and retry fetching it from the GNSS Management screen.
Survey & Measurements
- Live Helmert Transformations: The measurement map now displays a live, dynamic banner showing your exact Easting, Northing, and Height coordinates, updating at ~5Hz as you move.
- Streamlined Uploads: You can now easily upload a captured survey as a standard Survey, a Surface Model, or a GCP Set directly to the SDX-Cloud via the context menu (long-press the survey). The system intelligently tracks the specific upload types for each dataset.
- Smart Warnings: If you attempt to re-upload a dataset as the *same* type (e.g., uploading a survey as a surface model twice), the app will warn you before creating a duplicate layer.
- Pole Height Settings: Introduced a dedicated pole height setting directly in the survey workflow, allowing you to choose standard GL-Pole parameters or input custom heights in meters.
Connectivity & Workflow
- NTRIP Profile Manager: You can now store multiple NTRIP profiles, switch between them instantly, and automatically fetch mountpoints.
- Secure Storage: NTRIP passwords are now securely stored in the iOS Keychain (existing profiles are migrated automatically).
- Scan Countdown: Added a visual 3-second countdown animation before starting a scan for better preparation.
- Full Localization: Extended German localization coverage across the GNSS Management page, Firmware Update flows, NTRIP profiles, and all upload dialogs.
Improved & Fixed
Data Accuracy & Uploads
- Coordinate Conversions: Fixed a critical math error with the reference origin (cm → m conversion) to ensure Easting/Northing/Height values are perfectly accurate. The app also now displays "-" during tilt recalibration to prevent showing invalid data spikes.
- Polygon Fix: Fixed polygon uploads to properly close the LinearRing for area measurements in the backend.
- Upload Data Validation: The upload pipeline now strictly verifies that all points have valid local coordinates and field values before sending data, preventing backend errors.
- Offline Uploading: You no longer need to have the GNSS receiver actively connected to upload previously captured surveys; the app securely stores the capturing receiver's serial number per survey.
UI & Behavior
- SAPOS Integration: Deployed crucial connectivity and parsing fixes specifically for NTRIP/SAPOS networks.
- Map Cleanups: The Helmert transform cache now resets immediately upon dismissing the map, ensuring a fresh calculation is fetched for subsequent sessions.
- Auto-Tilt: Tilt compensation is now automatically enabled when entering the measurement map and smartly disabled when leaving to conserve resources.
