Digitizer
Digitizer lets you quickly and accurately generate
linear, area and counted takeoff in seconds. It's
the application to automate your entire digitizing
process and reduce all your manual spreadsheet and
paper calculations.
Much of the timesaving benefits of Digitizer reside
in its estimator-friendly dimension list. Rather than
having to jot down digitized dimensions on a separate
piece of paper or run manual calculations with an
outside spreadsheet program, you can use Sage Timberline Office
to automatically set up a customized dimension list.
The dimension list stores all your regularly used
dimensions that you can call on to complete an existing
estimate or save for use with future estimates on
similar jobs. You build your dimension list only once,
not every time you start a new estimate.
Sage Timberline Office Estimating application lets you build
dimension lists to your exact specifications. Start
from scratch by digitizing calculations to create
a new dimension list. Or, import an existing dimension
list from a previous estimate. Once imported, you
can tailor your dimension list by making all the edits
and additions you want. Then, when you're ready, switch
over to the estimate spreadsheet and automatically
fill quantity cells based on the calculations stored
in your dimension list.
Digital "photo album"
- Save
and store images as any standard picture file, such
as .bmp, .tif, or .jpg.
- Pull
up a building area or perimeter calculation and
view the corresponding digitized image.
- For
maximum storage capacity, compress files easily.
Instant
recall and flexible views
- Access
your dimension list directly from the quantity cell
in the estimate, pre-filling quantities on the spot.
- Access
your dimension list from Sage Timberline Office suites's assembly takeoff
screen, saving multiple quantities, dimensions and
images associated with any given assembly.
- Automatically
pre-fill the quantity cell with the last digitized
perimeter.
- Resize
and reposition the Digitizer window any way you'd
like to keep an eye on both the estimating screen
and the digitizer screen at the same time.
- Count
objects and digitize single lines, continuous lines
and areas with on-screen display for instant identification
of errors and omissions.
Additional
efficiencies
- Create
a customizable dimension list including the name,
quantity, and image associated with calculations.
- Digitize
an item and transfer the details and corresponding
images directly to the dimension list for later
use.
- Automatically
import an existing dimension list and edit it on
the fly.
- Immediately
recall the dimension list or the last perimeter
digitized from the estimating spreadsheet quantity
cell, or the item or assembly takeoff screen.
- Access
quantities and images while working in review assemblies
mode within sage Timberline Office Estimating software.
- Continuously
display the Digitizer window without having to re-launch
the application.
- Accurate
up to 1/1000 of an inch, compatible with virtually
any digitizer hardware that uses a 32-bit WinTAB
driver.
