One record, from lead to paid invoice for every survey job
Land Surveying & Mapping runs the whole survey-firm lifecycle — scheduling crews and instruments, tracking staged field-to-office tasks, organizing deliverables, and billing against contracted milestones — in one Odoo 19 app.
The problem
Survey firms run a project-based business spread across spreadsheets for crew and instrument scheduling, network drives for CAD and topographic files, and separate accounting software for invoicing. Office staff lose time reconciling who was dispatched where, chasing the latest signed drawing, and rebuilding what has actually been billed against a project's agreed scope.
The solution
Land Surveying & Mapping models the real survey lifecycle on one project record: staged tasks from measurement to report, crew and equipment assignments, deliverables organized by stage and linked to their milestone, and billing that always shows what is contracted, delivered, invoiced, and paid.
Everything a survey practice needs to run a job
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Staged Survey Project Lifecycle
Every project moves through a configurable task-stage workflow — measurement, data processing, report generation — on a Kanban board, so the job status stops living in people's heads.
Crew & Equipment Scheduling
Assign a surveyor and a specific instrument to a project, location, and timeframe with a start/end datetime and status, closing the dispatch-coordination gap that spreadsheets leave open.
Deliverables Organized by Stage
Attach CAD drawings, topographic maps, and compliance reports to the task and milestone they belong to, with a signed/sealed flag and a revision code, so the latest deliverable is always one click away.
Milestone Billing Tied to Scope
Define billing milestones with an amount and status, link each to the invoice it generates, and track whether it is paid — so billing always matches contracted scope, not guesswork.
Project Cash-Flow Visibility
Every project shows contracted, delivered, invoiced, paid, and outstanding amounts alongside a computed progress bar, so managers stop reconstructing billing status by hand.
Survey Equipment Registry
Track total stations, GPS units, and other instruments by asset tag, type, serial number, and availability state, with every assignment history visible from the equipment record.
Printable Survey Proposals
Generate a client-ready proposal report straight from the project record, so what gets quoted, delivered, and billed always trace back to the same document.
Internal Knowledge Repository
Store field procedures, safety guidelines, and compliance standards by category so crews and processors always work from the current version, not an emailed attachment.
Team Communication on Every Record
Projects, tasks, and deliverables carry a full chatter log and activity tracking, so job-related discussion and handoffs stay attached to the record they concern.
How it works
Open the Project
Create the survey project with client, site, and parcel reference, then define its billing milestones and contracted amounts.
Schedule the Field Work
Assign a surveyor and the required equipment to the site with a start and end time, so dispatch is visible to the whole office.
Move Tasks Through Their Stages
Track measurement, data processing, and report generation on the task Kanban, with deliverables filed against the stage that produced them.
Deliver, Bill, and Get Paid
Link the signed deliverable to its milestone, invoice the milestone, and watch the project's cash-flow figures update automatically.
