Copan for Windows is a very functional and easy-to-use geomatics engineering tool for computing and managing plane survey coordinates.

What´s new in version 11.01 (released on 2011.02.17):

• Various small improvements to the user interface have been made.
• Many a dialog that refers to an output file or to a codes table now has an Open button alongside the List button. This means that you can open and hence edit said file as an alternative to merely listing it.
• Various fixes to random memory problems have been made. This should prevent many of the crashes that some of you have experienced recently.

It does numerous coordinate geometry (COGO) calculations, processes and adjusts raw field survey data, computes and adjusts map traverse data, performs map checks, calculates areas and perimeters, performs coordinate transformations, and imports/exports Ascii files. It supports quadrant and whole-circle bearings, south-based and north-based circle bearings, and gons (or grads) as well as degrees.

It supports Geodimeter, Leica, Wild, Nikon and TDS total station formats.

Also, its coordinate files may be accessed by UGL's version of Windows Free42, an HP-42S simulator program, or copied to a memory card and used directly by the Palm OS and Pocket PC versions of Copan.

Designed for land surveyors, geodetic engineers, professionals and students, Copan is available for download, free of charge.
