totalopenstation is a free software program for downloading and processing data from total station devices, written in the Python programming language.

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.

GUI

The totalopenstation-gui module is a simple, yet complete graphical user interface for Total Open Station that allows to download, open and save raw data and export into the available output formats. It is currently based on Tkinter and works on all major platforms (tested on GNU/Linux and Microsoft Windows).

CLI

The totalopenstation-cli-connector module is a command line user interface to download and save raw data, while its companion totalopenstation-cli-parser is responsible for parsing and exporting data.

Documentation

Documentation is available at in the docs subdirectory of this package and online at http://tops.berlios.de/ with an user guide, details on the application structure, supported models and other stuff.
