GeoComPy

Python wrapper functions for communicating with surveying instruments over a serial connection.

The implementations use the Leica GeoCOM ASCII RPC procotol primarily. For older instruments, that do not support it, the GSI Online commands are used instead.

The package provides

  1. Utility data types for handling instrument responses

  2. Instrument software specific low level commands

Documentation

Public classes and methods are provided with proper docstrings, that can be viewed in the source code, through introspection tools or editor utilities. The docstrings follow the NumPy style conventions. In addition to the in-code documentation, a complete, rendered reference is avaialable on the GeoComPy documentation site.

Some docstrings provide examples. These examples assume that geocompy has been imported as gc:

>>> import geocompy as gc
