Why Land Surveyors Still Use ProLink v1.15

Numerous academic and professional case studies demonstrate ProLink 1.15 in action. For example, one cadastral project documented the use of the Sokkia Set 630 RK total station for field measurements. A crucial step in processing the collected data was its transfer from the instrument using ProLink 1.15 before being sent to licensed processing software like Toposys 5. This project confirmed the software's vital role in creating official documentation.

It is the "Swiss Army knife" for technicians who refuse to scrap a perfectly good SX-105 total station just because the software is old.
