Fieldwork in surveying and GIS involves constant movement between sites, working with coordinates, taking photographs, using specialised software and transmitting data directly from the field.
In granite quarries, these requirements are compounded by challenging operating conditions: dust, precipitation, temperature fluctuations, uneven terrain and intensive equipment use. In such scenarios, a mobile device must not only be functional but also capable of withstanding demanding field conditions.
The RugOne Xever 7 Pro combines the rugged design of a modern smartphone with the functionality required for working with GIS applications, surveying data and field documentation.
The Xever 7 Pro in a field surveying scenario
During control surveys at a granite quarry, the smartphone can be used as a mobile tool for working with field software, verifying data, marking control points, taking photographs and facilitating communication between specialists.
When used alongside professional GNSS equipment, unmanned aerial vehicles and relevant software, the rugged smartphone becomes part of an integrated field workflow — from data collection and verification to transmission and subsequent processing.
Key benefits for GIS and surveying
Compatibility with Android applications. The RugOne Xever 7 Pro runs on Android, providing access to a wide range of mobile applications for GIS, navigation, field data collection and interaction with surveying equipment.
For professionals, this means they can use familiar tools without having to switch to a dedicated field terminal for every individual task.
Long battery life for extended use. The smartphone is equipped with a 5,550 mAh battery, enabling extended use without recharging.
An additional advantage for field operations is the ability to replace the battery without fully powering down the device. This is particularly useful during long shifts, when interrupting the smartphone’s operation could affect access to navigation, data and work applications.
Protection for challenging conditions. When working in a quarry, a mobile device may be exposed to dust, moisture, drops and temperature fluctuations.
The Xever 7 Pro is rated to IP68/IP69K and MIL-STD-810H standards, making it suitable for use in more demanding conditions than standard consumer smartphones.
FLIR thermal imaging camera. The built-in FLIR thermal imaging camera extends the smartphone’s functionality beyond GIS and navigation tasks.
It can be used to detect temperature anomalies and perform preliminary checks of equipment, electrical connections and other technical installations. For professionals carrying out both surveying and technical tasks at the same site, this provides an additional diagnostic tool without requiring a separate thermal imager.
GNSS and mobile coordinate processing. GNSS support and compatibility with mobile surveying and GIS applications allow the Xever 7 Pro to be used for working with coordinate data and other field tasks.
The smartphone can also work alongside professional GNSS receivers, drones and other equipment, complementing a surveyor’s core tools with a mobile interface for collecting, verifying and transmitting information.
One device for a range of field tasks
For surveying and GIS teams, the value of the RugOne Xever 7 Pro lies not in replacing professional equipment, but in complementing it.
The smartphone can serve as a mobile work terminal, communication device, photographic documentation tool, navigation device and additional tool for technical diagnostics.
This format is particularly relevant for field teams working at large industrial sites, construction sites, quarries and other locations with challenging operating conditions.
