The name
almawqii — الموقع — means “the location, the site” in Arabic. A fitting name for a workbench answering the oldest question in the trade: where am I, and where is that boundary?

About almawqii
almawqii succeeds almawqii.ma: two applications for surveyors, Carte to survey on satellite imagery and MawCAD for CAD, linked by projects that save themselves.
Scope
The tool targets everyday surveying: setting-out, checks, area computation, file exchange with the office. It replaces neither precise levelling nor geodetic network adjustment.
Data and credits
Basemaps: Google and Esri. Elevations: SRTM (NASA). Place search: Nominatim (OpenStreetMap). The site's photographs are credited one by one, with licence and source link.
Stated limits
SRTM elevations are indicative; satellite basemaps depend on providers and coverage; on-screen measurements never replace an independent check in the field.
How it is built
Framework-free PHP 8.2 for accounts and projects, dependency-free JavaScript for Carte and MawCAD, Leaflet and proj4 for projections, no build step.
Ready for the field?
Open Carte, pick your zone and start surveying. A free account keeps your projects and opens MawCAD.
