Add or Remove Stakeout Points

Add stakeout points to your job site design to make them available on designated site controllers. Stakeout points are used on site controllers by crews using Site Controller Software (SCS) in the field to stakeout features at the job site. Both surveyed points and CAD points can be selected as stakeout points, but you must convert the CAD points to survey points before they can be included.
