Stringer Connect – Reads raw survey data from a multitude of data recorder formats, allows editing of raw data and transfer to AutoCAD Civil 3D and Land Desktop 
 

Stringer Connect is designed to allow the conversion of raw field information to a format known as the RW5 format. Once converted, the program then offers the survey information in the editor for amendments and additions of the survey data. Once the field file is amended, and the alterations saved to the rw5 file, we can reduce the information to coordinates. Alternatively, you can use the Saveas facility to save the file in Field Book Format (FBK).

For reduction purposes you can nominate a control file in CSV (Point number, East, North, Elevation, Code) or RW5 format. The coordinates from the control file override the coordinates in the field file if the same point exists in both. Once the observations are reduced, you can use the transformation capability of Stringer Connect to translate, rotate, and even scale the field information based on a datum line nominated.
