So far not much luck with finding survey specific libraries that are open source.

There is a guy doing a c library of cogo functions that can be purchased for around $25USD, and then built upon and distributed royalty free. But that just seems a bit of a waste and perhaps murkey waters for an open source distro.

A more promising, but perhaps bit too advanced for the current objectives, open source library exists for doing surface and TIN computations. This one is called GTS Library.

Perhaps a useful thing to do for the meantime might be to identify some key features that would be ideal to implement first? Some sort of requirements type draft up to give a little guidance in the sort of endpoint of a survey package.
