Optical Screening Tool Software
Description
The Optical Screening Tool (OST) software is proprietary software developed by Dakota for the collection, display, and management of sub-surface laser induced fluorescence (LIF) data generated by our UVOST® or TarGOST® instruments as well as soil color data generated by our SCOST® instrument. The software was developed by Dakota to be an intuitive and powerful tool for the collection and manipulation of data from our optical screening tools. Built for use on a Windows operating system, the software handles all communication with our instruments. The user is able to interface with the data, including generating log images and advanced batch processes. Like our instruments, our software shows that Dakota has been in the field for years. The software is built to be as easy as possible for field operators while still providing a powerful and wide ranging tool set.
