Use Mobile location to navigate projects

Starting with Emlid Flow 15.2, you can use Mobile location to navigate projects using your mobile phone’s location data, without connecting to your Reach receiver. The feature is available for the Pro, Pro Individual, or Business plans.

It's especially useful when working as a team. While your co-worker uses the receiver for surveying, you can still open the same project, navigate around the job site, and find specific mapped objects, such as pipes, manholes, or utility elements for inspection or planning.

Mobile location displays your approximate position on the project map, with a typical accuracy of 1–3 m under good outdoor conditions and Wi-fi enabled.

To get started with Mobile location:

  1. Enable Wi-Fi on your mobile device and keep it enabled even when you’re not connected to a Wi-Fi network. 
  2. Enable Mobile location in Profile > Settings > App settings.
  3. Allow Emlid Flow to access your device’s precise location when prompted.
  4. Go to the Receivers tab and select Mobile location.

Once enabled, your phone’s position is displayed on the project map, so you can navigate even when a receiver isn’t available. Learn more in the Navigate in the field using phone location guide.
