Before your first Survey

h3. It’s important to familiarize yourself with the software before attempting your first survey in the field.

I fully understand your excitement to get out in the field and start surveying with InspectX, however, to ensure the highest level of success, I suggest starting out by completing at least a couple of inspections the ‘old fashioned’ way using InspectX in the office before making the transition to working in the field.

If you don’t already have a template for your hand-written field notes I’ll include one here. FIELD NOTES

Once you begin using a tablet in the field you’ll set yourself small goals at first, planning on completing 20-30% in the field and increasing that amount with each subsequent assignment.

To start familiarizing yourself with the layout of InspectX, the following section includes these topics:

• The Project Selection Page
• The Main Navigation Page
• The Button Entry Page
• The Findings Page
• The Publish Preview Page
