Editing your route survey report in the Route Survey App is simple and intuitive, similar to using a word processing program like Microsoft Word. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Access the Report: Open the Route Survey App and go to the 'Reports' section to find your saved reports.
  2. Select the Report to Edit: Choose the report you want to edit. This will open the report, showing all the details you've previously added.
  3. Make Edits (Similar to Word Processing): When you're editing your report, it functions similarly to a word processing tool. You can click on any text or section to edit it, add or remove information, and format your text. This familiar interface makes it easy to make precise and detailed edits to your report.
  4. Save Changes: After editing, remember to save your changes. Look for a 'Save' or 'Update' button and click it to ensure all your edits are recorded.
  5. Export or Share: Once your report is updated, you can use the export or share feature to distribute the revised report to your team, clients, or keep it for your records.

We recognize that each route survey has its own set of requirements and sometimes you might encounter unique obstructions that aren't listed in our app. Here's how you can proceed in such situations:

  1. Use the 'Custom Obstruction' Feature: For unique or unusual obstructions not covered in our standard list, please use the 'Custom Obstruction' option. This allows you to describe the obstruction in detail. Remember to include as much information as possible to accurately represent the situation.
  2. Send Us Your Feedback and Recommendations: We are always looking to enhance the capabilities of our app. If you have suggestions for new obstruction types or other improvements, please email us at support@routesurvey.app. Your insights and recommendations are invaluable for future updates and help us cater better to the diverse needs of our users.

Route Survey App uses a two platform approach to complete route surveys. First is our mobile app which is used to conduct the survey. The app records the route being driven. As the route is driven, Obstructions can be added such as Bridges, Overhead Clearances, and Powerlines. For each Obstruction, notes, images, and measurements can be added and saved to your route. Once the route is completed, the app uploads the data and it is now accessible on the web app.The second part of Route Survey app is the web app, accessible through console.routesurvey.app. On the web app, data collected during the survey can be reviewed, and edited. After confirming that all the data is correct, users can generate reports, make changes, and download the report as PDFs or KML files (google earth). If exported as a KML file, the route will be overlaid on Google Earth with each obstruction marked. Clicking on an Obstruction will open all the relevant information such as Images, measurements, and notes.
