RCS COGO Enterprise

Overview

RCS COGO Enterprise provides state-of-the-art Coordinate Geometry (COGO) calculations paired with comprehensive Pipe Network modeling and Asset Management capabilities. Built for modern enterprise needs, it enables engineers and surveyors to manage complex datasets efficiently.

Key Features & Benefits

• Advanced COGO Engine: Calculate complex setup orientations, traverses, intersections, and alignments using our native commands (ST, OC, BS, TRAV, etc.).
• Scriptable Pipelines & Networks: Support for both UI-based and fully scriptable (batch) underground utility modeling with full 3-dimensional validation (Gravity, Wastewater, Pressure).
• Asset & Material Management: Maintain an active material database (DIP, PVC, HDPE) to instantly generate unified Bills of Materials (BOM) and project material schedules.
• Multi-Format Exports: Export seamlessly to AutoCAD DXF, Points XML/TXT, CSV BOM, and prepare data for ePANET INP topologies.
• AI Integration: AI-driven analysis of batch scripts for logical validation directly within the application.
• High Performance & Secure: Built on local high-performance SQLite/EF Core architecture paired with native C++ security verification.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Operating System: Windows 10/11 (64-bit) (x64 architecture required)
• Framework: .NET 8.0 Windows Desktop Runtime
• Database: SQLite (built-in, local file-based storage)

Installation

1. Clone or download this repository.
2. Build the solution (RCS.Cogo.Enterprise.Modern.sln) targeting x64 architecture.
3. Locate the compiled executable (RCS.Cogo.Wpf.exe).
4. Important: Ensure the native RcsSecurityModule.dll is preserved in the root executable output directory. Missing this DLL will trigger a hardware verification failure upon launch.
5. Launch RCS.Cogo.Wpf.exe to begin.
6. Download link: As-Built-Pro.

Usage Example

RCS COGO Enterprise shines in its batch processing and scripting engine. You can use the Cogo Script tab within the application to rapidly layout survey points and create geometric figures:

# Basic Coordinate Setup
ST 1 1000 1000 100 START
OC 1 5.0
BS 2 0.0

# Define Traverse & Branches
FS 2 90 200 0.0 POINT2
FS 3 180 200 0.0 POINT3
FS 4 270 200 0.0 POINT4

# Generate Closed Shape "SQUARE"
B SQUARE 1
L 2
L 3
L 4
C

For pipe networks:

# Start a transmission main from Point 1 to 2, 8-inch diameter, specified inverts
PRUN START 1 2 8 90 85

Python COGO & Vision Application (Cross-Platform)

A cross-platform Python implementation of the RCS COGO & AI Vision engine is available inside the python/ directory.

Quick Start

cd python
pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 app.py

Key Python Features:

• Tkinter Desktop GUI: A clean dark-themed CAD viewport with live drawing canvas, console logger, JEA validation reports, and interactive COGO calculator panels.
• Dual AI vision: Built-in support for Gemini Cloud and local Ollama vision models to transcribe plat maps or blueprint tables on your local machine.
• LandXML Data Exchange: Robust import and export of LandXML v1.2 files including coordinate lists (CgPoints), closed lot boundaries (Parcels), and open centerlines (Alignments).
• State Plane Mapping: Utilizes StatePlane EPSG:2236 geographic projection checks to validate survey bounds.

Packaging for Windows, Mobile, and Tablet

An automated packaging helper script build_packages.py is provided to compile application bundles for all platforms:

# Build standalone Windows desktop executable (.exe)
python3 build_packages.py windows

# Build Android package for mobile/tablet (.apk)
python3 build_packages.py android

# Build iOS archive for mobile/tablet (.ipa)
python3 build_packages.py ios

# Build all packages sequentially
python3 build_packages.py all

Briefcase handles downloading SDK tools (like Android SDK, Gradle, Xcode templates) automatically on compile.

Contributing and Maintainers

We welcome improvements, bug reports, and structural suggestions from developers and surveying engineers!

1. Please evaluate validation_rules.json if you're adjusting standard pipe drop or clearance constraints.
2. When making modifications to database interactions, ensure you heavily test EF Core object state tracking. Entity Framework tracking exceptions during figure generation/deletion have strict cleanup rules.
3. Submit a Pull Request targeting the main branch with comprehensive unit tests for any mathematical additions.

Maintainers:

• RCS Enterprise Technical Deployment Team
• Open to community maintainer applications.
