ORTWIN is a program for the state-wide inquiry of the localities in Germany. It finds postal zip codes, telephone pre selections, coordinates, it performs perimeter searches and distance calculations. The program determines municipal codes, local center points, car license codes, topographic maps and more. It arranges localities hierarchically into the structures federal country, administrative district, rural district, town, municipality, local quarter and domicile. In a radius around a place or around a postal code area covered localities and postal areas can be clearly represented by a comfortable perimeter search. They can also be arranged in a list, stored as a file and printed. For the local inquiries and perimeter searches a data base with more than 60.000 geo coded localities is available. The program represents local data, determined by local inquiries and perimeter searches, in graphic overviews and data lists. The program supports conversions between different coordinate systems and the distance calculation between the places. It calculates with Gauss Krueger coordinates and Geographic Coordinates referring to the Potsdam Datum (Bessel ellipsoid with central point Rauenberg). It also works with UTM coordinates, which refer to the datum ETRS89 (GRS80 / WGS84, geocentric). The functionality of the program is described in a detailed electronic manual. The program can be run on most common networks and it is possible to use Terminal Services on WINDOWS Servers. The client installations are done automatically.

TOPOWIN is a state-wide register of the German Topographic Cartographies, the German Basic Cartography and of localities with geo references in different coordinate systems. It is also a topographic information system. In the division of planning and execution of economical and scientific projects frequently topographic documents are used. The program TOPOWIN makes information available of the official topographic cartographies and the German Basic Cartography from the entire national territory in suitable graphic views. It accomplishes different coordinate transformations and inquiries. The program was developed under co-operation of the land surveying authorities of many German Federal States. For the first time in the previous version TOPO (for DOS) and later in TOPOWIN state-wide topographic information were arranged for the data technical evaluation. The program is for consulting engineers, planning authorities and users of topographic maps a useful and versatile tool. The topographical maps of different standards, required for a project, can be determined by the complaint of known parameters or by the direct selection from overview graphics and from sorted lists. By the investigation of topographical records on the basis of known places, a data base with more then 105.000 places and residential districts is available. The program TOPOWIN calculates with Gauss Krueger coordinates and Geographic Coordinates refering to the Potsdam Datum (Bessel ellipsoid with central point Rauenberg). It also works with UTM coordinates and UTMRef coordinates in the NATO standard, which refer to the datum ETRS89 (GRS80 / WGS84, geocentric).
