To those of you reading this, I posted in another thread but that thread went in a different direction, so I try in my own thread.
I am in need of someone who can write together a program described below.
I am in Sweden and am NOT a company, but am willing to pay for the job (within reasonable levels that both can live with)
What do you consider to be the minimum amount for a small job that has the following parts: WiFi, reads data and saves to CSV file?
Please specify which version of my idea (1 to 3) you can build and what it will cost.

Some time ago I went and bought PIKO's measuring cart which in itself is a nice cart but the software for Windows has some bugs that PIKO has not done anything about, to get rid of the errors.
The main problem with PIKO's software is that the radius of the curves is not saved in the CVS file.
Values for the radius of the curves are displayed live in the program, so I know that the cart transmits the measure value and that the program receives the data, but the CVS save function does not include the real measurement values for the radius of the curves, but it will only be 0 at that position in the CVS file.
PIKO's measuring cart homepage:
https://www.piko-shop.de/?a=mwThis is a model railway wagon in scale HO (1:87).
What is measured is:
* DCC data
* DCC Volts
* Track inclined width - right/left (dosed curve)
* Track inclined length - up/down (hill)
* Track Radius
* Mileage
* Speed
--*---
This is what I want the program to do:
1 - Basic function:
* Connects to the measuring cart's WiFi AP
* Reads streamed data from the measuring cart.
* Saves the received raw data as a CSV file locally on the computer/drive.
* Target OS Windows, MaC & Linux
* Open source and publicly downloadable.
2 - Luxury version 1:
* The received data is decoded to human readable values before being saved in the CSV file.
* The program has a GUI that presents received data live in some neat way.
3 - Giant luxury version:
* All measured data is saved as CSV and STEP/STL (3D) file.
* GUI has a 3D window where measuring data is presented as 3D graphics.
* A function to be able to virtually "ride around" on the virtual model railway that collected data has created.
