Capture

Every photo, fully documented.

Civil Field Photos isn't a generic camera. Every shot includes the metadata you'd otherwise log by hand — and the overlays render directly on the photo so they survive any export.

Live GPS overlay
Latitude, longitude, compass heading, altitude, and reverse-geocoded street address are stamped onto every photo as you capture.
Auto timestamp
Every shot is stamped with the capture date and time automatically — one less thing to log by hand.
Camera controls
Flash toggle, front/rear switch, and screen-rotation lock — built for one-handed use on a hard hat in bright sun.
Sensor-backed GPS
Coordinates come from the device's location sensors. Street address identification uses Apple or Google services and requires network access when available.

Annotate

Mark up in the field, not back at the desk.

A full annotation toolset lives on every photo. Add measurements, arrows, callouts, and notes the moment you spot the issue. Originals are always preserved.

Annotation tools
Arrows, dimension lines, freehand markup, and text labels.
Color palette
Switch annotation colors to keep different inspection passes separate.
Toggle visibility
Hide overlays for a clean view, then bring them back. Originals are always preserved.
Undo / redo
Full-history editing. Try a markup, change your mind, restart instantly.

Field documentation

A complete record, attached to every photo.

A normal camera roll tells you a photo exists. Civil Field Photos records where it was taken, when it was captured, which project it belongs to, and the field notes that explain it.
