Supporting Google Earth
Topcon Tools allows one to display a network on Google Earth satellite imagery

Background Image and creating Georeference Image
Topcon Tools can:
• open a georeferenced image as back-ground
• create a georeferenced image using a digital image and picture points in the desired coordinate system

Post Processing
• Processing static, stop and go, kinematic Topcon GPS+ and RINEX/ Compact RINEX data
• Engine mode selection
• Auto-importing a nearest reference station and processing a single rover occupation from this station
• Precise ephemerides used for processing both GPS and GLONASS satellites observations
• The Raw Data Plot option allows the user to view in graphical form not only the plots of any ‘regular’ GPS/GLONASS
receiver observables, but also the plots of various algebraic combinations of these observables.
• Possibility to split and merge occupations
• Disabling Satellite(s) from processing
• Computing positions of the camera perspective center at the moment of exposure

Adjustments
• Least Squares free or constrained adjustment of separate or mixed TS, GPS and DL observations
• Separate adjustments for plane coordinates and for heights performed after network analysis by the Adjustment module
• Reports on adjusted points, fixed/weighted points, used and rejected observations, errors of unit weight (UWE) and UWE bounds
• Export results to industry standard formats

Quality Control
This option allows one to set:
• horizontal and vertical precisions for
static/kinematic/localization points,
• precision for a distance and horizontal/vertical angle of TS observations
• horizontal/vertical precisions for RTK
vectors and static/kinematic GPS post processed vectors
• precisions for digital level measurements
The user can run the following tests:
Warn Float Solutions, RTK Precisions, PP Static/PP Kinematic precisions, Point Standard Deviations, Identical Points test, Misnamed GPS Occupations/Autotopo Rovers, Invalid Antenna Parameters.

Localization and Coordinate Systems:
• Separate Horizontal and Vertical localization
• Localization Algorithm computing conversion parameters from WGS84 to a local system using one or more pairs of Control Points
• Extensive projections support including creation of custom projections/datums
• Wide range Geoid support

Creating/Editing Roads
• Creating new roads,
• Support of TopSURV and other software roads support
• X-section templates import from different formats

Creating/Editing Surfaces
Viewing/editing/creating digital terrain model

(surfaces)

Design module:
• Creating a digital terrain model and graphical view of this model in the CAD and 3D View
• Coordinate Geometry solutions (compare surfaces, intersection, inverse point to line, point in direction, and traverse)
• Creating roads, TopSURV and other software roads support
• X-section templates import from different formats

Image Module:
• Scan sessions support
• Stereopairs import and viewing
• Positioning points on the stereopairs

Report
Topcon Tools allows one to generate a standard report for Points, Adjustment, Localization, Quality Control, GPS Observations and TS Observations, and create a custom report format

Export Data to Devices
• Coordinates data files to a Total Station
• Any files from Topcon Tools to a TPS Controller

Export Data to File
• Exporting either desired data or all data of the current job file to a corresponding file format: Coordinates, Design, GIS, Road, TopSURV, Topcon XML, GPS Obs

Tabular View
The Tabular view contains tabs with tables of information on the points, occupations, observations, linework, roads, cross section (X-sect) templates, surfaces, tape dimensions, images, stereopairs, and scan session used in the job.

MAP View
The Map view is a graphical latitude/longitude or northing/easting plot of points, GPS/TS/observations and background map

CAD View
The CAD view is a graphical view of linework, roads, and surfaces with the associated points

3D View
The 3D View displays points, lines, surfaces, roads and lineworks using a three-dimensional representation of the data
