Survex for Debian ----------------- Overview -------- Survex is cave surveying software. It will process cave survey data entered as text to produce .3d files containing centreline data. It can cope with extremely large datasets, and allows hierarchical arrangement of surveys. Data can easily be imported from many other programs, and Compass data can be read natively. Survex provides a very fast and capable .3d file viewer called aven which runs under X in the package survex-aven. Sample Data ----------- If you want some sample data to experiment with, you can download some from the Survex website: https://survex.com/software/sample.tar.gz Docs ---- The documentation is provided in HTML, text and PDF formats, and is also online at: https://survex.com/docs.html There is a mailing list for users at survex@survex.com - subscribe at: https://survex.com/maillist.html Vim Support ----------- The survex package include vim syntax highlighting for Survex data files, but it is not enabled per default.
