+
+Instrumentman (or I-man for short) is a Python CLI package, that is a
+collection of automated measurement programs and related utilities for
+surveying instruments (mainly Leica robotic total stations).
+
+- **Download:** https://pypi.org/project/instrumentman/
+- **Documentation:** https://instrumentman.readthedocs.io/
+- **Source:** https://github.com/MrClock8163/Instrumentman
+- **Bug reports:** https://github.com/MrClock8163/Instrumentman/issues
+
+## Main features
+
+- Pure Python implementation
+- Support for type checkers
+- Command line applications
+
+## Requirements
+
+To use the package, Python 3.11 or higher is required.
+
+I-man relies on the
+[GeoComPy](https://github.com/MrClock8163/GeoComPy) package for the
+implementation of the various remote command protocols.
+
+The individual commands require a number of other packages for command line
+argument parsing, JSON manipulation, calculations and other functions.
+
+## Installation
+
+The preferred method to install I-man is through PyPI, where both wheel
+and source distributions are made available.
+
+```shell
+python -m pip install instrumentman
+```
+
+If not yet published changes/fixes are needed, that are only available in
+source, I-man can also be installed locally from source, without any
+external tools. Once the repository is cloned to a directory, it can be
+installed with pip.
+
+```shell
+git clone https://github.com/MrClock8163/Instrumentman.git
+cd Instrumentman
+python -m pip install .
+```
+
+## License
+
+I-man is free and open source software, and it is distributed under the terms of the
+[MIT License](https://opensource.org/license/mit).
