About topoXpress
topoXpress provides the following features:
• Multiplatform design: the same software with the same rich functionality for both GIS data collectors and Surveyors on iOS & macOS.
• Handling and displaying large spatial datasets (raster and vector).
• Responsive and intuitive user interface: easy to learn and use, automatic adjustment to different screen sizes, orientations, and resolutions of mobile (iPhone, iPad) and desktop devices.
• Online and offline operation: online data sources (Cloud storage, TMS, WMS, KML), offline raster datasets (jpeg, ecw, ers, tiff, png, lan, bil, ENVI bsq), offline vector datasets (shp, dxf, map, GeoJSON, mif, txt, crd, dat, dbf, tab, mid).
• Powerful GIS visualization functions: thematic mapping, transparency, labeling, query, layer groups, vector symbols, line types, fill types, event mapping.
• Productive data collection: templates, surveying, stakeout, CoGo (Coordinate Geometry), forms, lists, calculated fields, GIS editing functions, sampling tool, and more.
• Collaborative mapping for professional users through the topoXpress cloud service.
• Extensive support of GNSS receivers through TCP port & Bluetooth, projection systems, geoids, shift grids. Bluetooth Rangefinder support for CoGo tasks.
The app can be used in many different sectors:
• Field data collection and inspection
• Land Surveying
• Topographic mapping
• Forestry
• Farm mapping
• Utility mapping and inspection
• Archeology
*** NOTE: topoXpress offers all specified GIS functions free of charge. However, loading more than 10.000 records, saving and exporting your job can be done through our cloud service. Please visit our website for further details: https://topoXpress.com
**NOTE ON BATTERY USAGE: The app may dramatically decrease battery life during the use with large spatial datasets. The app supports optional background location services, which can may cause a faster battery drain than usual.

1.2.6
Oct 28, 2020
NEW# A custom OSGeo standard based TMS server
NEW# Support of Spanish language
NEW# Disto rangefinder support for the CoGo tools. Now it is possible to connect the Disto device to topoXpress on iOS platform through Bluetooth (no Wifi support). In the CoGo tools, when a simple Disto device is used (e.g. X3) it only transmits the horizontal distance (no inclination data). If the Disto device has the DST360 extension, the azimuth value is transmitted into the CoGo survey panel.
NEW# Voice messages were introduced for GNSS surveying. The connection status of the GNSS device (get GNSS, lost GNSS, get RTK, lost RTK), the current distance during Stake Out (10m, 5m, 1m, 50cm, 10cm) and a confirmation message after measurement are implemented.
BUG# After changing the CRS in Projects/Current/Projection menu point, the mapview moved far away from the last seen location. Now the mapview is staying approximately on the same location after a CRS change.
BUG# When a new record was created or an existing record was modified in TopoLynx Cloud synchronised project on iOS or macOS , the app could crash after pressing the save icon at the top right. This issue was resolved.

1.2.3
Jul 25, 2020
New Features:
-Basic module: Cheaper licenses are available for lower price with limited funcionality. For more info visit topoxpress.com.
Changes:
-WMS update: Zoom to layer extent button was re-intorduced and fixed. The displayed layer bound information on the panes was improved. Transparency control and Tranparent color selection is working. Dispaly modes were simplified and a potetntial error was fixed in the tile request. Helper guides were added to the layers tab.
-Same Input geometry labeling style in each toolset, with improved label rendering method
Bug fixes:
-The EPSG number retrival from the metadata was fixed for WMS layers. This bug previously casued that, the value of the EPSG code was 0 in the layer properties and no tiles were downloaded.
-In the case of an average measurement, the information points do not fall on the breaking points of the area.
-Class panel (Symbol, Line, Fill) label rendering issue.
-When the Dark Style is turned on under the Settings/Map, the transparency of vector layers can not be set.

New features:
-Reorganized touch gestures.
-Better stability during document collection and GNSS surveying.
-Support for Lzw compressed TIFF/BigTIFF files.
-Raster georeferencig panel was added to the layer settings where the layer's projection transformation parameters could be set. It allows On-the-Fly transformation for raster files.

These longer texts are displayed in the table only in the current session. After restart the field's content is croped to length. The number of characters is now limited by the field's width when using the system keyboard
BUG# 1474 A DXF load error was fixed which could cause a crash with specific files, even those which were created with topoXpress. The attribute loader was changed to prevent this error
BUG# 1455 In Demo mode the Icons on the GIS toolkit has undefined behaviour
BUG# 1496 Files created with MAP format and UTF-8 encoding are having issues with during attribute reload. The attributes are becoming either missing or mixed up
BUG# 1360 If the text is too long, the full text will not be visible in the lists, even in the rotated view
BUG# 1494 Program can crash when using raster index display modes (difference,ratio, NDSI)
