342 Topcon Europe Positioning has released SurveyMaster Lite, a new CAD-based desktop application for surveying and job site information editing and plotting.

Mark Contino, TPS (Topcon Positioning Systems, Livermore, USA) vice president of product marketing, said: "SurveyMaster Lite is a cost-efficient surveying office software package perfect for the cadastral surveying and construction stakeout professional." Modelled from Topcon's SurveyMaster software program, SurveyMaster Lite is loaded with survey specific functionality as well as surface modelling and contouring tools. It provides tools required to produce final plats and survey calculations for property surveys, topographic maps and ALTA surveys, and is designed so users can manage data from raw format all the way through to a finished plot. Survey calculations can be completed and uploaded to the field collector for stakeout and field verification.

Contino said: "SurveyMaster Lite is the perfect addition to complete any Topcon instrument system. It completes the cycle of a 'field-to-finish' solution. The program is on the USB drive so users can simply take the USB Drive with them and have the program on any PC.

"It was designed by surveyors that have the software experience needed to understand what is needed to manage site and surveying data efficiently."
