True-north bearings from GPS and augmented reality—no magnetic interference, no declination. Measure distances, place markers, and lay out rectangles in the field.
A field compass you can finally trust.
G-Compass reads true-north bearings from GPS and augmented reality (AR) — not your phone's magnetometer — so nearby steel, rebar, vehicles, and local magnetic disturbances don't pull it off course, and there's no declination to set. From that same calibrated foundation it also measures distances and bearings between points, lays out new points and rectangles, and captures corner elevations — all visualized right in your camera view.
Whether you're laying out a solar array, surveying land, planning an installation, marking boundaries, or aligning structures, G-Compass turns your phone into a practical field layout and directional-measurement tool.
KEY FEATURES
G-Compass — Calibrated AR Compass
Read a stable true-north heading referenced to GPS, free of the magnetic interference and declination errors that throw off phone compasses and even quality sighting compasses. Readings are already true north — there's no magnetic declination to add or subtract. Sight the bearing to any object using the on-screen aiming crosshair.
Two Point Measurement
Mark two points — such as existing stakes — to instantly read the azimuth (bearing) and distance between them, so you can verify a layout was set correctly.
Two Point Layout
Place a point at a specified distance and azimuth from a reference point. Stake out with accurate orientation and spacing, even where tall grass or obstacles defeat a tape measure.
Rectangle Layout
Enter length, width, and orientation, and G-Compass generates the four corners in real space — so you can confirm the array fits the location and stake it out square. Walk to each corner to record its elevation and reveal the site's slopes for planning.
Real-World AR Visualization
See points, lines, and layouts overlaid directly onto your surroundings through augmented reality — no guesswork translating a drawing to the ground.
Accurate GPS Integration
A short guided calibration anchors every measurement to real-world coordinates and true north; from then on, your operations inherit that accuracy.
IDEAL FOR
- Solar array layout
- Surveying and field layout
- Construction and site planning
- Land measurement
- Outdoor mapping and orientation
- Engineering and field operations
HOW IT WORKS
G-Compass calibrates augmented reality to GPS with a short walk between two points, then holds that reference as you work. For best results, use it outdoors with a clear view of the sky.
G-Compass helps you plan, measure, and visualize spatial layouts with confidence — directly in the world in front of you.
