totalopenstation binary package in Ubuntu Trusty i386
Total Open Station (TOPS for friends) is a free software program
for downloading and processing data from total station devices.
.
This is a task which is usually done by proprietary, dedicated and
Windows™-only software, but TOPS is different by nature, because:
.
- it is free software released under the GNU GPLv3 license;
- it works on any operating system, including mobile platforms like OpenMoko;
- it is designed to support as many devices and formats as possible,
all within the same program, opposed to having one program per device.
.
Every model has its own quirks, but TOPS uses a modular structure and keeps
the downloading of data logically separated from its processing, thus enabling
exporting data to a variety of output formats, even at a later moment.
Archiving of raw data is made easy by using plain text files.
