About the App: FuturaPro Stake

The most popular app among Futura and Eos users is FuturaPro Stake. FieldPro Stake is Futura’s iOS mobile app for designing projects easily in the field. The app transforms any iPad into a powerful staking device, enabling field crews to simply and easily design in the field, with all the details they need at their fingertips. All the collection can be done directly in the field.

Combined, the Futura and Eos solution provides utilities with a staking solution that is both affordable and accurate. FieldPro Stake on iPad provides designer engineers with the tools they need to draw up a job in the field, which when combined with the Eos Arrow receiver, means field crews can now do this with spatial accuracy. This means utilities no longer need to hire external surveyors to complete high-accuracy staking workflows in the field. They can do it themselves, easily, affordably, and accurately.
