Before you start · Report Reader

Use this when you want a narrow review aid before human checking. Outputs are advisory only and unverified; outputs are not for survey deliverables. Registered surveyor confirmation is required.

Advisory only

Input you have

Use this to explore the bundled fictional .rpt reduction report during the synthetic public beta.

What it helps review

It helps review warnings, errors, misclosure, residual, sigma, status, and summary lines before office review.

What it cannot prove

It cannot prove source observations, project thresholds, coordinate correctness, or professional conclusions.

What to check next

Check parse confidence, skipped lines, vendor-specific blocks, and the original report before sharing any review notes.

Reads supported report text and extracts clearly labelled warning, error, misclosure, residual and sigma summary lines. Every professional decision remains with the registered surveyor.

Original uploaded files stay unchanged. This summary is indicative only and requires surveyor review.

Synthetic public beta: real-file selection is disabled. Load the fictional sample below; no account, upload or customer data is required.

Public beta · advisory demo

See the enriched output on a sample report.

No upload needed — this parses a fixed synthetic report and shows parsed metadata, station setup, control/observations, misclosure & residuals, parse confidence, QA readiness, and advisory warnings. Every result is advisory and unverified; not a survey deliverable.

Final statutory and professional assessment requires a registered Australian surveyor. Engine results are checking aids only. Every deliverable, lodgement, legal/cadastral decision and sign-off remains with a registered/licensed surveyor.

Sign-off occurs outside SurveyMarkup. This sheet is a working record of an advisory review session. Professional assessment, sign-off and lodgement decisions are made by the registered surveyor under the applicable state instrument.

Demo limitations & data safety

This demo parses a synthetic .rpt / .txt report in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Results are advisory and UNVERIFIED — a checking aid, not a conclusion.
Your source / original files are never modified.
Exports are reviewer handoff notes — not survey deliverables.
Registered surveyor confirmation is required before reliance.
During the synthetic public beta, use the bundled fictional examples only.

Review path · Report Reader

SurveyMarkup is a step in a human-in-the-loop review. Every path stays advisory and unverified and ends with a registered surveyor.

What to check next

Parse confidence — is it flagged as a partial parse?
Unparsed vendor blocks and any skipped lines
F1 / F2 observation classification
Warning / error / misclosure / residual lines

Use any export as a reviewer handoff note, not a survey deliverable. Outputs remain unverified; registered surveyor confirmation required. Your source / original files are unchanged.

Safety & scope

SurveyMarkup helps prepare and review working information. Every professional decision remains with the registered surveyor, and original data and final outputs require qualified review.

Assistance only - professional review remains required.
