DOCS is a software package that is sold by Romer. The word "DOCS" means Data Overlay Camera System. Read more about DOCS at these sites:

Comparing DOCS to Supravision
Supravision and DOCS are developed by Romer. Supravision is an older program that is quite stable. The DOCS software is much newer.
DOCS Software |
Supravision Software |
Active - Continued development |
Static - No more development |
Allows for the measurement of tube data and non-tube data surrounding the tube - including brackets and other fabrications |
Measures only tube shapes |
Can use contact or non-contact measurement |
Can only use non-contact measurement of tube shapes |
Can measure multiple tubes in a single DOCS file |
Can measure one tube per Supravision file |
From the demo of the software, it appears that measuring a tube is not too complex. I believe that more setup is required than in Supravision. |
Measuring tube shapes is very simple once you become used to the structure of the Supravision menus and what they actually do. The user interface is easy to understand after a couple of days of use. |
Our Experience
We have demo Supravision software and know that Supravision works well. We do not have a demo version of DOCS software, so we are unable to give a recommendation regarding DOCS from personal experience. The documentation shows that DOCS is more powerful.
