The Smart
Communication
Solution

Survey Link

Survey Link provides seamless integration between your Tripod Data Systems Data Collector or total station with TDS Onboard software and Autodesk,  Intergraph, Plus III, CAiCE and SDMS software. Using Survey Link, you will be able to competitively bid more projects and for a more diverse clientele than ever before.

DC Module

The optional DC module is the answer for large engineering firms, state DOTs and other companies who routinely contract out survey work. The DC module receives data from Sokkia, SMI, TDS, Topcon and Leica data collectors, total stations and digital levels, and it formats that data for a large number of engineering software packages. The DC module makes data formatting problems a thing of the past.

Geodetic Module for GPS Data

The optional Geodetic module computes single-point and coordinate-file transformations using geodetic, state plane, UTM and custom coordinate systems. This versatile module provides you with the flexibility to use data from many different sources and work with the data in the format of your choice.

Digital Level Module

The optional Digital Level module fully supports the Topcon DL-Series digital levels.
