topoXplore is a powerful GIS software to bring your geospatial data to the field and collect new ones using a GNSS receiver or other devices. The softwareworks on Windows desktop and Mobile platforms.

After installation,launch the software from Today screen, Desktop screen or from Start menu.

The Startup Screen allows you to create a new project ①, measure points ②, lines ③, polygons ④, open existing projects ⑤ or use a template projectto copy its content and setting to a new project ⑥:
