AgForm-3D

AgForm-3D is the perfect field design software to accompany your AGS Agriculture GPS System. AgForm-3D lets you view and design the existing field to suit your needs, and it’s quick and easy to transfer site survey files between your computer and the AGS-C System Five 3D control box. With AgForm-3D on your laptop computer and the HiperLite precision GPS receiver, you have a completely wireless Ag survey system. Use AGForm-3D to view existing field contours and profiles, and then design the field as a single plane or break it into as many sections as needed.

AgForm-3D Field Design Software:

Export and import job files to Topcon’s AGForm-3D Survey/Design software.
Break the field into multiple slopes using AGForm-3D, and the AGS-100 Grade Control system will automatically cut the proper grade when crossing sections.
Use AGForm-3D to create sections for balance areas, and then operate within the sections viewing your movement on the AGS-C Control Box color display.
Surveying:

Hands-free survey using Topcon’s GPS or GPS+ receivers
Bluetooth® wireless technology capable for cable-free connection from the computer to the survey receiver
Large, easy-to-read numbers and status screens
Automatically record elevation readings at desired intervals
On screen alignment steering grid – change the steering grid to any angle
Generate existing ground contours while surveying – see how the field is taking shape as you work
Record secondary benchmarks and landmarks
Breakline survey capability
Trip and Slope Meter calculates trip and point-to-point distances and % slope while surveying
Mouse-click between points to determine distance and bearings
Design:

Rotate the field design orientation to match a field edge or any degree of angle desired
Measurement tool calculates point-to-point distance, bearing, % slopes, and area volumes. Great for calculating earth quantities for roads and ditches
Edit and change point information
Easy-to-use zoom feature
3D ground views from any angle
View and compare existing ground and design ground profiles from any location and angle
Real-time profile view lets you see changes instantly
Great for determining break line locations
Import and export text files. Field data from old files or other programs can be imported for design on AGForm-3D, or export your survey data to use with other programs
Choose from a cut/fill number grid or contour map to view existing, design and cut/fill information
Select to view benchmarks or landmarks and survey shots
Design the field as a best fit plane, single slope plane, or dual slope plane.
View designed slope arrows and/or water flow direction arrows
Divide the field into multiple sections to minimize earthwork quantities
Sections can be “terraced” with dirt balancing within each section, or side-by-side sections can be “hinged” with a seamless edge between sections
Make breaklines as straight lines across the field at any angle, or make a section any shape you desire
View area, cut and fill quantities, and yards/acre for the entire field
Sub-region calculator for determining balance areas
Change design of sections with the click of a mouse
Save a section as a separate field
Incorporate separate fields into one
Print all views and cut/fill maps
Quick Stake-Out:

Return to the field and stake out points, landmarks, and area markers
Set alignment points for laser set up
Set cut/fill hubs from field design
Quick, easy file transfer to the AGS-C control box for automatic GPS land leveling
Simple file transfer of new field design directly into the AGS-C control box. Just copy to a flash card, plug it into the AGS-C box, and begin moving dirt!
