More cave surveying resources</h2>
<p>CUCC uses the platform-portable <b>Survex</b> package - this has its
<a href="http://www.survex.com/">own home
page</a> and can be downloaded free. It also has a mailing list
to keep you up to date with new releases and the like. Send a message with
just the word subscribe in the body to
<a href="mailto:survex-subscribe@survex.com">
mailto:survex-subscribe@survex.com</a> to subscribe, or use the
<a href="http://www.survex.com/maillist.htm">web form</a> which includes
a bit more explanation.
<p>Output from Survex (and a number of other survey programs that can now generate .3d files in the same format) is typically viewed on-screen with a
graphics utility called CaveRot. Users should note that the mailing list for
<b>technical</b> discussions of this utility is now discontinued as the pace
of development slackens. However, discussion of CaveRot is welcomed on the
main Survex mailing list.
<p>You can find a list of
<a href="http://www.sat.dundee.ac.uk/~arb/surveying/">other available
surveying software</a> on Andrew Brooks' site (along with pages for BCRA and
its various special interest groups, and quite a lot of other caving clubs).
<p>For more discussion on Cave Surveying, there is a specialist mailing
list. Subscribe by sending a "subscribe" message to
<a href="mailto:cave-surveying-subscribe@survex.com">
mailto:cave-surveying-subscribe@survex.com</a>. Most of the discussion
here is not at the beginning-surveyor level, however.
<p>You might also like to join the Cave Surveying
<a href="http://www.sat.dundee.ac.uk/~arb/surveying/csg.html">special
interest group</a> of the British Cave Research Association. This
publishes the quarterly
<a href="../../../../survex/cp/index.htm">Compass Points</a>,
which is also available on the web, some time after the printed edition
(the delay depends somewhat on how much work the webmaster has to do on
<b>this</b> site before finding time for Compass Points :-)
