Logs, export and backups
Preview a PDF log on the device, export your data, and back up a project.
Log can do more than capture data: you can preview a finished PDF log on the device, export your data, and back up a project - all from the app.
Preview a PDF log
Preview a borehole or trial pit log for a location, rendered from your configuration's log templates, without leaving the field.
Open the log preview
From a location, open the log preview.
Choose the log and scale
Pick the Log to render, and a Depth Type - Scale or Meters Per Page - then a scale if needed.
Preview and share
Log generates the PDF and shows it on the device. From there you can share it - for example by email.
Previewing needs a connection
PDF logs are rendered in the cloud, so previewing a log needs an internet connection.
Export data
You can export a location's data as CSV and send it on - the app prepares the files and hands them to your device's share or email, so you can get data off the device quickly when you need to.
Backups
The Backups screen lists your projects so you can recover a project's data if you need to. Tap a project and choose Share to send its backup files out. It is a safety net for getting a project's captured data back when you need it.
The cloud is the source of truth
Your data syncs to the cloud as you work, where it is refined in Manage and shared through the rest of the platform. Export and backups are for getting data off the device directly; they do not replace the sync.
