SSSpread
Introduction
SSSpread is a proof-of-concept Microsoft Excel
client for the Surveyor Summary Server (SSS).
Using embedded Excel web queries and the full range of Excel's analysis
tools, the Surveyor analyst can customize a view of the Surveyor measurement
data that best meets their needs. (screenshot)
