4Overview
5--------
6
7Survex is cave surveying software.  It will process cave survey data entered
8as text to produce .3d files containing centreline data.  It can cope with
9extremely large datasets, and allows hierarchical arrangement of surveys.
10Data can easily be imported from many other programs, and Compass data can
11be read natively.
12
13Survex provides a very fast and capable .3d file viewer called aven which
14runs under X or Wayland which is in the binary package survex-aven.
