Rock Mapper 4+

Hurray. The World's first 3D Grade Control Solution is here :)

- Sampling Domains for LiDAR Mesh Scans: Use the Apple Pencil to assign geological domains to a LiDAR mesh scan. The app will automatically calculate area percentage values for all domains. 3D domains can be exported as textured mesh (OBJ+MTL+JPG) and/or in CSV file format.
- Sample Sets for LiDAR Mesh Scans: Enhance your grade control with the ability to add Linear Sample Sets (e.g., Channel Samples) or Point Sample Sets (e.g., Grab Samples) directly to a LiDAR mesh scan, all in full 3D. This feature also includes options for adding QAQC data (Duplicates, Blanks, Standards) as well as Sample Attributes.
- 3D Mapping & 3D Sampling Report: Users can manually frame the report image for both the Mapping Report and the Sampling Report in case the automatically captured image of the 3D LiDAR scan isn't to their likings.
- Increased LiDAR Mesh Scan Size Limit: Users can now capture LiDAR mesh scans that are up to 20% larger in a single session compared to version 3.1.
- Other Improvements:
a) Author button has been removed. Now, the Mapping Author and Sampling Author are entered through the FaceID window by tapping on the title on the Mapping Page or Sampling Page.
b) New Rock Mapper server locations for Africa & Latin America
c) New option to quickly fill sampling domains (Only fill Unknown)
d) Wide Brush toggle has been replaced with an option to select from three different brush sizes for assigning sampling domains in 2D and 3D
e) Improved handling of long text in PDF reports
f) Additional metatdata available in [FaceID]_metadata.csv file
g) Stepper buttons added to 'Rotate to Align' tool to allow for a more precise LiDAR scan rotation / georeferencing
h) Auto-hide georeferencing toolbar as soon as all georeferencing information has been entered
i) Visibility toggles (show/hide) have been replaced with visibility sliders for mapping annotation layers and sampling domains
j) Face outline now also saved in DXF format and included in Rock Face ZIP file
k) Improved alert messages
l) SampleID field length has been extended by removing delete button (trash icon). Individual samples can now be deleted with a swipe left gesture.
m) Total Area and Filled Area for Sampling Domains as well as percentage values for all domains relative to Total Area or Filled Area are now shown in the app and included in the Sampling report PDF.
n) Overall speed and memory improvements. Faster is better :)

Happy Rock Mapping :)
