Carlson Software Introduces New SurvCE 2.0

Carlson Software (KY, USA) has introduced Carlson SurvCE 2.0, a complete data collection system for Real Time (RTK) GPS and Total Stations.

Carlson SurvCE 2.0 combines a tab-based menu structure with enhanced graphics and an improved instrument interface. It supports most instruments, file formats, and handheld devices. This includes several GPS network protocols, such as NTRIP, TCP, and UDP, plus all major manufacturers' conventional and robotic total stations and RTK GPS systems.

Always visible ‘Hot List' buttons allow users to jump to SurvCE 2.0 routines without needing to memorise key stroke shortcuts. SurvCE 2.0 also ‘keeps track' of all base stations, rovers and total stations used and allows users to go from one to another without time-consuming reconfiguring. The ‘Help' buttons give immediate access in the field to the entire user manual.

In addition, more than 50 top new features include:
- Enhanced graphics and standardized icons;
- Support of LandXML points, DTM, graphics, alignments, profiles and sections;
- Ability to compute volumes between two surfaces, one surface and an elevation, or simple stockpile volumes;
- Option to use a template DXF file for new jobs to automatically create layers and colors per your company standard;
- Support of an unlimited number of localization points; and
- Ability to stake offset intersections and bisectors at angle points.

Carlson SurvCE 2.0 is available now.
