What is a GC3 file

GC3 files mostly belong to Topcon Tools. GC3 files are used to store GPS and 3D point cloud data.
These files are primarily generated by Topcon equipment. They contain data collected during surveying work and may include precise coordinate measurements, elevation, and other spatial details.
Usage Details:
  • Topcon GPS Data – The file holds geospatial measurements used for creating accurate maps and point clouds.
  • 3D Point Cloud – It stores a set of points representing real-world structures, which can later be analyzed or visualized.
  • The GC3 format may also be used by Java-based applications (such as a Grapher 3D tool) for creating 3D graphs.
    FilExt.com tip: To process these files, use Topcon Tools software. For further details and support, please visit Topcon Positioning.
