Move a pole or update its location

You know that Confirm Location is the only button that moves the pin, and what the Update Measurements switch does.

Where: UtilityScout, on the phone, Move Pole on a selected pole.

When you finish: you know that Confirm Location is the only button that moves the pin, and what the Update Measurements switch does.

Update Measurements

A switch, on by default

While on, Confirm Location also carries the object's measurements to the new position. Turn it off if you only want the pin to move

Not sure? Leave Update Measurements on and use Confirm Location.


After you move it

  • Moving fixes where the pole sits. It does not replace measuring it. If the job still requires measurement, measure after the location is right; see Measure a pole.

  • Before you leave coverage, check the status says Synced; see Check that your work is syncing.
