Points may be entered into the program several ways
- Imported from a comma delimited ASCII file
- Format #, North, East, Elevation, Comment
- Format #, East, North, Elevation, Comment
- Imported from a DXF file
- Calculated from an Intersection,
Parallel line,
Distance from two points
- Transverse
- New Point at same coordinate as an
existing point - with or without an offset
- North offset
- East offset
- Elevation offset
After you have acquired the points it is important that the point has a
meaningful comment
When I take shots I use abbreviations with the data collector - often just the
station # then
manage the comments with the Comment Editor
