Inventory and resources

Survey Equipment Tracking Software

PLN treats equipment, vehicles, and materials as scheduling inputs, not disconnected inventory lists. Managers can see whether resources are available before work is planned.

Survey equipment inventory with serial numbers, calibration dates, check and adjust dates, and validity status
An instrument out of calibration is a job done twice. Equipment, vehicles, and materials carry the dates that decide whether they can be used, and those dates are read during planning rather than discovered on site.

Keep instruments and vehicles visible

Track equipment, vehicles, and materials in the same environment where survey tasks and field plans are managed.

  • Equipment inventory
  • Vehicle records
  • Material visibility

Use availability in planning

Resource records matter because they affect whether a crew can complete the job. PLN keeps that context close to scheduling.

  • Planning context
  • Status visibility
  • Resource assignment history

Reduce avoidable field delays

Calibration dates, availability notes, and equipment status help teams catch operational issues before a survey crew is already on site.

  • Calibration date awareness
  • Maintenance context
  • Operational checks before dispatch

Questions

Common buying questions.

What can be tracked besides instruments?

Vehicles and materials as well as instruments. Each record holds a serial number, its current status, the dates that govern its use, and the notes and owner attached to it.

Which dates does PLN keep?

Calibration and check-and-adjust dates for instruments, plus insurance and inspection dates for vehicles. They are used during planning, so availability is known before dispatch.

Does it warn before something expires?

The inventory shows calibration due warnings and next calibration dates alongside validity status, so an approaching date is visible in the register rather than only in a reminder.

Can two crews be stopped from planning the same instrument?

Equipment and vehicle context is part of survey planning, which is what makes a clash visible while the plan is being made rather than on the morning of the job.
