Leica Geo Office
Leica Geo Office (LGO) is an office software consisting of a suite of standard and
extended programs for the viewing, exchange and management of data.
Jobs, codelists and other related files can be transferred from the instrument or data
storage device to LGO for post-processing.
In LGO, the Data Exchange Manager enables data to be transferred between an instru-
ment and a computer. The Import Raw Data function in LGO, imports the data from
the computer or data storage device into an LGO project.
