Colorado DOT COGO

COGO (COordinate GeOmetry) is an engineering tool used to determine geometric relationships. There are a number of ways to create a geometric model.

There is a command language that allows the user to define and solve geometric problems in engineering terms. There are Windows forms that you fill in to create the geometry. And you can execute COGO inside of AutoCAD using the Windows forms and native AutoCAD drafting tools to create, display, and manipulate the COGO model. The result is a model that describes the geometric relationships for a particular project. The information in the COGO model is used in many disciplines such as surveying, highway design, right of way, land acquisition, and construction.
