This Week's Lead

From Field to Office in Real-Time.

MeasurePRO v16.1.102 closes the loop between the truck and the desk. The moment the field crew creates a survey, it appears on the planner's RoadScope map — no manual export, no waiting for a USB stick, no "send me the file when you get back." Inside this issue: the v16.1.102 RoadScope Sync workflow (Local Only, New Map, or attach to an Existing Map), how the office sees POIs land on the right route in real time, the Route Intelligence paywall going live for foreign POI detail, POI Discovery from external sources, the self-healing Field App PWA, and a preview of "Ask the Data" — the natural-language query engine that's next on the bench.

MeasurePROv16.1.102 · May 18, 2026

RoadScope Sync at survey creation — pick your destination before the first POI is captured

v16.1.102 moves the RoadScope decision to the very first screen: the moment a surveyor creates a survey, MeasurePRO asks where the data should go. Local Only keeps the survey on-device. New RoadScope Map creates a fresh map in RoadScope and links it to this survey. Existing Map attaches the survey to a map the office has already set up. From that point on, every POI flows back to the chosen map automatically — the office sees the route fill in as the crew drives it.

What's new:

  • RoadScope Sync prompt on every new survey — Local Only / New RoadScope Map / Existing Map, picked once, remembered for the duration of the survey
  • Sign-In from Sync Banner — if the field user isn't signed in yet, the sync banner now opens the sign-in flow inline instead of bouncing back to Settings
  • Loading Spinner Fix — the spinner that occasionally got stuck after a long sync no longer hangs; the UI returns to ready state as soon as the last part is uploaded
  • Backwards-compatible with v16.1.101 surveys — existing Local Only surveys can be promoted to a RoadScope map at any time from the Sync panel
RoadScopePOIs on Routes · shipped

Every POI knows which route it belongs to — automatically

Before v16.1.102, the office had to manually decide which incoming POIs belonged to which planned route. Now the assignment happens automatically. When MeasurePRO pushes POIs in, RoadScope resolves each one against the active route set: explicit field-side assignments are honored first; everything else is matched by spatial buffer against the closest route in the map. The result is that the Routes tab in MapPro always shows the right POI count per route, the Driver Briefing pulls the right hazards, and the elevation profile aligns the POIs with the correct corridor — no manual sorting required.

What's new:

  • Auto-assigns synced POIs to the correct route on the map
  • Honors explicit field-side route tags when MeasurePRO provides them
  • Falls back to a spatial buffer match against the closest route for everything else
  • Per-route POI counts, hazards, and badges in the Routes tab update live as POIs sync in
RoadScopeRoute Intelligence · shipped

Foreign POI detail data — measurements, clearances, condition — unlocked on demand

Route Intelligence is the paywall that gates detail data on POIs that came from external Route Intelligence sources (not from your own crew). Foreign POIs appear on the map for free with basic context. The detail layer — measurements, clearances, condition — is unlocked per POI with credits, or unlimited on an RI subscription. Credits never expire, unlocks are permanent on your workspace, and the audit trail of every unlock is visible to the workspace owner.

What's new:

  • Credit-based unlocks per foreign POI, or unlimited on an RI subscription
  • Permanent unlock on your workspace — buy once, every teammate sees the detail
  • No external source names exposed anywhere in the UI — all foreign data is labeled "external Route Intelligence sources"
  • Unlock history and credit ledger visible at /ri-data
RoadScopePOI Discovery · shipped

Find every POI along a corridor before you survey it

POI Discovery (Tools → POI Discovery) sweeps the corridor of any route in your project and surfaces every POI the platform already knows about — your own crew's captures, your company's captures on other projects, and POIs from external Route Intelligence sources. Pick the ones that matter and import them into the active map in one click. The planner walks into the first day of survey planning with the bridge list, culvert list, and intersection list already on the map.

What's new:

  • Search a route corridor end-to-end with a configurable buffer
  • Filter by POI type, owner (yours / your company / external Route Intelligence sources), and risk badge
  • Import selected POIs into the active map without leaving MapPro
  • Respects Route Intelligence paywall — foreign detail data still requires an unlock
RoadScopeField App PWA · shipped

Installable, offline-capable field shell at /fieldapp — survives every release

The Field App is a Progressive Web App, not a website. Install it once on the pilot-car phone or tablet from /fieldapp and it loads instantly, even with no signal, because the shell and its JS/CSS chunks are cached on the device. The service worker is also self-healing: when the office ships a new RoadScope release, installed Field App users are not kicked off the cached shell. API traffic always passes through to live data, but the shell itself keeps working until the user is ready to update.

What's new:

  • Installable to home screen on iOS and Android via the standard PWA install flow
  • Cache-first for the shell and code chunks — opens instantly with no signal
  • All /api/* traffic passes through — live data when you have signal, queued when you don't
  • Self-healing service worker preserves the Field App cache across RoadScope version updates
RoadScopeWhat's Coming · in development

Ask the Data — natural-language queries across your entire route history

The next big swing for RoadScope is Ask the Data: a natural-language query engine layered on top of every survey, route, POI, and report in your workspace. Combined with the v16.1.102 auto-sync from MeasurePRO, this is the moment the office can ask "show me every bridge under 4.5 m on a Quebec corridor we surveyed in the last 12 months" and get an answer in seconds instead of opening 14 surveys by hand. Coming soon — not shipped yet.

What's new:

  • Natural-language queries over POIs, routes, surveys, and reports in your workspace
  • Pulls answers directly from your synced MeasurePRO data — no manual exports
  • Also in development: duplicate POI detection, anomaly detection on field captures, AI-powered per-POI risk scoring
  • No ship date yet — we will name a beta window when the answers are reliable enough to trust on a permit
ProfilingPROQuick Tip · Audio Watchdog in practice

Audio Watchdog: 6 alert types — eyes on the road, data to the ears

ProfilingPRO's Audio Watchdog turns six categories of recording health into audible cues so the driver never has to look at the tablet to know the run is good. Use it on long highway stretches where staring at the screen is exactly what you can't afford to do.

What's new:

  • Grade alarm — distinct tone when the live grade crosses your warning or critical threshold
  • RTK warning — different tone the moment the GNSS fix drops below RTK fixed
  • Connection alert — speaks up when the antenna or correction stream disconnects
  • Storage / battery — voice cue when storage or battery crosses the low-water mark
  • Recording start / stop confirmation — one-shot tone confirms the action actually took, even with the screen off
  • End-of-segment cue — short tone marks the end of each logged segment so you know the file rolled cleanly
SweptPROIn beta · Thacker Pass corridor

In beta — used live on the Thacker Pass corridor

SweptPRO is currently in beta and being used on the Thacker Pass corridor. The crew is running swept-path analysis from the cab on the same rugged tablet that ships with the MeasurePRO kit. The differentiator is the same as it was at prototype: drone shot to turning-radius check on-site, without waiting for the office. Public beta still on track for fall.

LoadPROIn development

In development — axle-load calculator for the whole team

LoadPRO continues to build. The product premise hasn't changed: an axle-load calculator any employee can run — office, field, or cab — with the equipment library built directly from your CAD drawings so the math mirrors your real fleet, not a generic one. We'll announce the closed-beta window in The Weekly when it's real.

Quick Tip of the Week

RoadScope Pairing Code workflow — link a MeasurePRO device in under a minute

Open the survey in RoadScope → Collaborative Survey panel → "Generate Pairing Code." A 7-day RS-XXXXXX code appears. On the MeasurePRO device, paste the code into the RoadScope Sync screen and the device is linked to that survey — POIs flow back automatically from that point on. Codes auto-expire after 7 days, can be revoked instantly from the panel, and the panel shows last-sync time and parts-uploaded count so the office always knows the link is healthy.

On the Bench — RoadScope · next 30 days

  • SoonClearance violations pinned directly on the route map — click a violation in the panel and jump straight to the offending segment
  • SoonRegion overlays on the map — colored groupings so you can see at a glance which POIs belong to which province or state
  • SoonPer-project grade thresholds — set your own warning and critical % per corridor instead of using global defaults

Heads-down on BreakBulk Europe prep and post-Thacker Pass follow-ups. If you'll be on the floor in Rotterdam in June, find me — happy to demo the v16.1.102 sync live.

Issue Nº 01May 7, 2026Open this issue

This Week's Lead

17,000 POIs. 4,700 km. 6.5 days. One crew.

The Thacker Pass dual-lane survey just wrapped. A single SolTec crew captured 530 bridges, 3,631 culverts, and 299 intersections across the full 4,700 km corridor — 720 km of survey-grade data per day, every day. Inside this issue: the Field Capture App that just shipped for pilot-car crews, ProfilingPRO graduating to beta after 2,500 km of field validation, where SweptPRO and LoadPRO are in the build — and how Convoy Guardian kept the whole convoy in sync without a single bar of cell signal.

In this issue

  1. 01Thacker Pass: 17,000 POIs in 6.5 days
  2. 02RoadScope ships the Field Capture App
  3. 03What's new: MeasurePRO, LoadPRO, SweptPRO, Convoy Guardian, ProfilingPRO
  4. 04Quick Tip: Tag in the field, filter in the office
  5. 05On the Bench: 3 RoadScope features in the next 30 days
RoadScopeField Capture App — Week of May 7, 2026

Field Capture App is live at /fieldapp — built for the pilot car, not the desk

Pilot-car crews told us the same thing every survey: the regular mobile map is too dense to use while driving. The Field Capture App strips it back to one screen of huge, high-contrast buttons wired to a physical touch pole on the front bumper, so a single bump on a low wire or a tight curb is captured as a geo-tagged POI in under a second. Captures push back to the survey in real time, so the planner at the office sees the route fill in as the truck drives it.

What's new:

  • New driving-mode capture screen at /fieldapp with phone-sized, glove-friendly controls (no navigation UI, no voice — capture only)
  • Critical Turns can now be split into named sections in the PDF (e.g. "Day 1 — Northbound", "Restricted clearance corridor") with drag-and-drop between groups
  • Table of Occurrences now supports native spell-check and Cmd/Ctrl + B for bold inside cells, with proper Undo/Redo
  • Polish: shared-map menus no longer slip behind the map on mobile; long-route exports get an extended timeout so big surveys finish cleanly
MeasurePROv16.1.101 · April–May 2026

17,000 POIs. 6.5 days. One app.

The Thacker Pass survey proved it: 4,700+ km, 17,000+ data points, 530 bridges, 3,631 culverts, 299 intersections — captured by a single crew in 6.5 days. That's 720+ km per day. MeasurePRO doesn't slow you down. It keeps up.

What's new:

  • Live Support — RoadScope admins see your screen via WebRTC. Troubleshooting happens now, not after the job.
  • POI Safety Badges — tag Danger, Work Required, or Information in the field. Office filters by risk; critical items surface first.
  • 7-day free trial — install, launch, survey. No codes, no accounts.
  • Offline license — no internet? No problem. LicensePRO keys work anywhere, anytime.
  • Emergency Cache Clear — one button in Settings. Fixes sync issues without reinstalling.

Action Required

Update to MeasurePRO 16.1.101 — read this before you install

If MeasurePRO has been feeling sluggish or unresponsive on your PC, this is the fix. Two leftover folders from older versions cause the issue, and Windows Uninstall doesn't remove them — so simply installing on top will not solve it. Follow these steps in order:

  1. Uninstall the version of MeasurePRO currently on your PC (Windows Settings → Apps → MeasurePRO → Uninstall).
  2. Manually delete these two folders (the uninstaller leaves them behind, and they are what cause the freezing):
    • C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Local\measurepro-desktop-updater
    • C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\measurepro-desktop
  3. Download & install the latest installer. After install, you're good to go.

You can also try the in-app update — but the two folders above must still be deleted manually first, otherwise the update won't fix the freezing.

LoadPROIn development · ~35% complete

The axle-load calculator your whole team can actually use

LoadPRO is the next addition to the SolTec stack: an axle-load calculator built so any employee can run a configuration — from the office, from the field, even from the cab of the truck. Build your equipment library directly from CAD drawings, run a load distribution in seconds, and stop bottlenecking permits behind a single specialist.

What's new:

  • ~35% of the codebase complete
  • First closed beta is a few weeks away
  • Equipment import from CAD drawings is the cornerstone — we want your library to mirror your real fleet, not a generic one
SweptPROEarly prototype · public beta this fall

Run swept-path analysis from the cab — drone shot to turning radius in minutes

SweptPRO's early prototype was used in the field during the Thacker Pass survey. It's not done yet — there's real work left before public beta this fall — but the differentiator is already clear. SweptPRO runs on the rugged tablet that ships with the MeasurePRO kit, which means a tight intersection can be drone-shot, imported, and turning-radius checked on-site, without waiting for the office.

What's new:

  • Early prototype tested live on the Thacker Pass corridor
  • Public beta planned for fall 2026
  • Built to run on the same rugged tablet your crew already uses for MeasurePRO — no second device, no second account
Convoy GuardianField-tested at Thacker Pass

No cell. No internet. Just a 10–20 km private mesh keeping the convoy in sync.

Dual-lane escort. A 20-foot-wide, 14'5"-tall load rolling through 37 railroad crossings and 43 traffic lights. Convoy Guardian doesn't depend on cell coverage or internet — every module runs on a private mesh network with reach of 10–20 km between vehicles. The lead escort measures, the fleet sees the same numbers in real time. No radio chatter. No silent failures. No surprises.

What's new:

  • Private mesh, no infrastructure — works in dead zones, work sites, mountain passes; 10–20 km between vehicles
  • Auto-triggered alerts — when the lead system raises a warning or critical alert, every driver hears it instantly. Nothing to push, nothing to miss.
  • One-button emergency stop — any module can trigger it. Sound + visual strobe on every device leaves no room for "I didn't see it."
  • QR code join — scan, connect, roll. New escorts onboard in seconds.
  • Black box logging — every event, every alert, every stop exported to CSV for audits
ProfilingPROv1.3.0 · public beta in ~2 weeks

2,500 km of field testing. Beta drops in two weeks.

ProfilingPRO logged 2,500 km on the Thacker Pass corridor — across vertical curves, steep grades, long-haul stretches, weather changes — and held up. v1.3.0 nailed the one thing that mattered most: zero-freeze recording. Record for hours, no crashes, no lost data. The public beta is rolling out in about two weeks — download link and install instructions will land in your inbox the moment it's ready.

What's new:

  • Zero-freeze recording — critical performance overhaul. Long sessions just work.
  • Wind blade & cargo scraping detection — convex and concave curvature risk flagged in real-time
  • Audio watchdog — grade alarms, RTK warnings, connection alerts. Eyes on the road, ears on the data.
  • Live map on the GNSS dashboard — real-time position and recorded track, with grade-colored route overlay
  • Color-coded elevation profiles — 0% to 14%+ in distinct bands. Steep grades scream at you.

Quick Tip of the Week

Tag it in the field. Filter it in the office. Fix it before the load moves.

On the Thacker Pass survey, 17,000+ POIs were recorded in 6.5 days. Imagine sorting that manually. Instead: tag critical points as Danger or Work Required using MeasurePRO's badge system. When RoadScope syncs, your office filters by badge — Danger zones get eyes first, Work Required goes to maintenance, Information stays as context. Three taps per POI. Zero hours sorting.

On the Bench — RoadScope · next 30 days

  • SoonClearance violations pinned on the map — click a violation in the panel and jump straight to the offending segment
  • SoonRegion overlays on the map — colored groupings so you can see at a glance which POIs belong to which province or state
  • SoonPer-project grade thresholds — set your own warning and critical % per corridor instead of using global defaults

Just back from the Thacker Pass dual-lane survey. Now heads-down on prep for BreakBulk Europe in June — if you'll be there, find me on the floor.

  • Weather-on-the-Way: per-route, per-segment weather risk reports with operational risk banners (Good to Travel / Use Caution / High Weather Risk / Do Not Dispatch) — including a quick A→B weather check from the Routes tab
  • In-app Insta360 Field Capture Guide: built-in camera-setup walkthrough and field workflow checklist accessible from the Survey Import modal
  • Survey Scheduling & Team Assignment: schedule field surveys, assign them to teammates, and track completion without leaving the platform
  • POI Photo Annotations: draw arrows, circles, and notes directly on attached POI photos to highlight what matters in the field record
  • Survey Time Estimator with day cutoffs to plan multi-day field work realistically

Collaboration

  • NAV Live Dispatch: see active SolTecNAV surveyors live on the office map and push a revised route (with optional POIs) directly to a specific surveyor — they Accept to switch instantly or Save for Later
  • MeasurePRO Pairing & Real-Time Sync: generate a 7-day RS-XXXXXX pairing code so the field crew can link a MeasurePRO device to your survey and stream POIs back automatically
  • Collaborative Survey panel in MapPro: copy the pairing code, manage collaborators by email and role, and watch sync status (parts uploaded, last sync time) update in real time
  • Live Support Screen Sharing: invite a teammate or support agent to view your map session live for faster troubleshooting and walkthroughs

Reports & Client Delivery

  • Driver Briefing PDF: a purpose-built handout for the crew with route map, hazard summaries, and critical POI callouts
  • Route Comparison view: compare two routes side-by-side across clearance constraints, grade profiles, POI counts, and permit complexity
  • Permit Auto-Fill: pre-populate permit application fields directly from your route data — jurisdiction, dimensions, and constraint summaries filled automatically
  • OS/OW Document Center: store vehicle specs, certificates, and permit documents alongside the route record
  • Report Hub consolidation: every report type — Quick Report, Full Report, Ontario TMP, Driver Briefing, Mapbook — gathered in one panel with consistent status, lock, and version controls
  • Word (.docx) export and customizable report templates so you can match your firm's house style
  • Mapbook PDF report: paginated, georeferenced map books with cover pages and per-page POI indexes
  • Per-region PDF inspection reports for jurisdictional submissions
  • Client Delivery Portal: hand clients a live, branded interactive Shared Map of the survey via a single link — no software required on their side
  • Shared Map now includes the elevation profile, POI badges, and feature parity with the office MapPro view
  • Real Client Preview map inside the Share tab so you see exactly what your client will receive before sending the link

Map & Routes

  • Multi-Phase Workflow: every POI and route now carries a phase — Preplan, Road Survey, or SharedMap — so you can separate planning data from field-verified data from client-ready data
  • Phase Filter: switching the phase pill in the POIs or Routes tab now controls map visibility too, so the map always reflects the phase you are working in
  • Bulk Phase Switch per POI type: move every Bridge (or any group) from Preplan to Road Survey in one click — no more flipping POIs one at a time
  • Closure POI types and a road-closure overlay layer for active and planned closures along your route
  • Restriction badges and span POI pairs so paired structures (entry / exit, span start / end) display together with a shared restriction badge
  • POI Heatmap visualization to spot density and clustering across long routes at a glance
  • POI mile/km markers along the route with automatic renumbering when you add or remove POIs
  • Convoy Passage Verification: confirm a planned route is actually traversable based on captured field data before dispatch
  • Area Inspector quick POI lookup for rapid triage of any spot on the map
  • Routes tab and POI header redesign: route action icons now sit on a dedicated row below the title for easier scanning, and POI headers are clearer and more compact
  • Streetview ruler upgrades: auto-distance, distance markers, and a unit toggle that converts the displayed distance live
  • Beautified Pegman drag handle for a cleaner Street View experience

Quality of Life

  • Unified Distance Units: changing the Miles/KM preference in your User Profile or in the map sidebar now syncs everywhere — measuring tool, route distances, directions panel, Street View labels, the lot
  • Short measurements now display in meters or feet (with auto-promotion to km / miles for longer measurements) instead of awkward "0.03 km" readouts
  • Phases renamed to Preplan → Road Survey → SharedMap for a clearer, three-step workflow
  • Unified MeasurePRO map style across every map view
