Below are some of the things that simpeCOGO does.

• Compatible with Windows Vista.
• Use up to 100,000 points, each containing a point number, a pair of coordinates, and a descriptor.
  
• The common cogo functions like bearing-distance traverse, inverse and the intersection problems are built-in and executed from one screen. The utilities menu includes inversing from anywhere in the program and a line-line intersection solution, where 2 lines defined by point numbers has been added to the traditional bearing-bearing intersection
  
• Use bearings or North azimuths , and horizontal or slope distances.
  
• Import and export ascii (text) files in several formats, especially useful with data collector files or transferring files from other cogo programs.
  
• Compute open or closed field traverses with the compass rule adjustment.
  
• Use the field stakeout and layout routines to prepare notes for field crews or do it in the field with a laptop. This routine computes the angles and distances to target points from a known point and backsight. Use for single or multiple points.
  
• Calculate perpendicular, parallel and reference line offsets. Great for computing offsets to property lines in ALTA surveys.
  
• Inverse between point numbers or by entering individual coordinates from anywhere in the program by using a hot key.
  
• Find the angle(s) formed by the intersection of 2 lines. Displays deflection, interior and exterior angles.
  
• Calculate curve data by entering any 2 valid combinations
  
• Compute finished elevations using a 'Grades' routine.
  
• Contains a Lot Closure/Map check routine in which you may quickly check closures for subdivision lots, areas, etc., including curves. Gives area in square feet and square meters.
  

Many of the same routines described above and other features below are also contained in PalmCogo and PocketCogo. Click Here for details.
