One of these applications is Spectra Precision Geodimeter Software Tools 2.02 (SP GST 2.02), which is an application to upload, download, and edit Geodimeter surveying data files. SP GST 2.02 is useful with Geodimeter instruments and data only. It runs on Windows 95, 98, Me, NT 4 Service Pack 4, 2000, and XP. SP GST 2.02 can perform various functions, such as:
Converting raw data files to different formats, such as ASCII, DXF, LandXML, and CSV
Generating reports and plots of observations, coordinates, traverses, and adjustments
Editing data files by adding, deleting, or modifying records
Performing coordinate transformations and datum conversions
Importing and exporting data from and to other applications, such as Terramodel and GeoTool
SP GST 2.02 was developed by Spectra Precision, which was a subsidiary of Trimble Navigation. Spectra Precision acquired the Geodimeter brand from Geotronics in 1999. SP GST 2.02 superseded Geodimeter Software Tools 2.01 for Windows and Geodimeter Software Tools 1.0 for DOS. SP GST 2.02 was supplied with several CDs, such as Spectra Precision Geodimeter Software Tools, Spectra Precision Terramodel 9.7, Trimble Terramodel 9.8, and Geocomp 10.
SP GST 2.02 is no longer supported by Trimble Navigation, which has replaced it with Trimble Data Transfer Utility and Trimble Terramodel. These applications are compatible with newer versions of Windows and can handle data from various Trimble instruments. However, some Geodimeter surveyors may still prefer to use SP GST 2.02 for its simplicity and familiarity.
SP GST 2.02 can be downloaded from some online sources, such as GitHub, but the authenticity and legality of these sources are not guaranteed. The original installation files of SP GST 2.02 may be hard to find or damaged due to computer failure or disk corruption. Therefore, Geodimeter surveyors who want to use SP GST 2.02 should backup their installation files and data files regularly and securely.
