Import / Re-import Points From Drawing Dialog Box

Import points from the current drawing into the survey database and survey network, as control points or non-control points, and specify options for linework processing.

Point Type

Specifies the imported points as either control points or non-control points in the network.

Current Figure Prefix Database

Specifies the name of the figure prefix database. Select the database from the list.

Process Linework During Import

Specify Yes to process linework during the file import.

Current Linework Code Set

Specifies the linework code set that is used in the linework processing.

Process Linework Sequence

Specifies the order in which survey point descriptions are processed to determine linework connectivity. Select one of the following:

• By Import Order - processes points in the order in which they are imported. Point names are always processed by import order.
• By Point Number - processes points sequentially by point number (ascending order only).

Import Event Name

Specifies the name of the import event that is created by the import command. By default the import event name is the name of the imported file.

Import Event Description

Optionally, specify a description for the import event.

Assign Offset To Point Identifiers

Specifies that an offset is applied to point identifiers before the points are imported into the survey database.

Point Identifier Offset

Specifies the offset value that is applied to the point identifier. For example, if the offset value is 1000, point number 101 is renumbered to 1101, or point name KC101 is renamed as KC101.1000.
