OrthoGraph I is a building survey and floorplan creation application for iOS and Android mobile operating systems, developed by OrthoGraph, a software developer based in Budapest, Hungary. The software can be used to support building information modeling processes.

Product history

[edit]

The first version of OrthoGraph was released in 2004 for PDA devices. An iPad version of the application was released in 2011.[1][2]

In 2013, a cooperation agreement was established between OrthoGraph and Leica, so that several Leica laser distance meters were supported by OrthoGraph's application. Bluetooth support for the Bosch GLM 100 C laser distance meter also became available. OrthoGraph also developed its own cloud computing services.[3][unreliable source?]

In 2015 OrthoGraph began developing its Android version. In September 2016, a multi-platform version of the app was published, called OrthoGraph I, with a new user interface, more accurate measurement, and faster workflows.

Software overview

[edit]

OrthoGraph I can capture data from third-party distance measuring devices (from Leica, Bosch and Stabila).[4] Data is transferred via Bluetooth, with floorplan outputs shareable with users on other devices.[5][unreliable source?]

Supported formats include DXF (AutoCAD), PDF (Adobe), IFC (Industrial Foundation Classes), JPEG, and PNG. Data can also be exported to ArchiCAD using a separate module.[6]
