Exporting Survey Data

CCTV Survey and Manhole Survey data contained in a network can be exported to a number of formats. Data can be exported for the whole network, one or more zones, or currently selected objects.

Survey data can be exported to the following formats using the Export survey data option:

MSCC XML	BEFDSS XML	EU TXT	STC25
Examiner	Image	PACP/LACP	MACP
Cleanflow	RibX XML	WSA

Note: In order to support the correct prefix for the XML tag when exporting manhole surveys in the RibX XML format, ensure that you have chosen the appropriate Cleaning activity property for the relevant manhole surveys. If set to Manhole, this will result in a "J" prefix and an "E" prefix when set to Gully.

Export Survey Data

To export survey data:

1. Select Network | Export | Export survey data and choose one of the options.

   This displays the Data Source dialog.

2. Choose the Data Source Type from the list on the left.
3. If the Data Source Type is Zone or Zone Category, select the Data Source from the dropdown list of zones or zone categories on the right.
4. Click OK.

   This displays the Survey Export Options dialog.

1. On the Survey Export Options dialog:
   • Enter the name of a directory to where the data is to be exported. (To search for a directory, click the Browse button.)
   • Enter a name for the exported files. This will be used as the first part of the name for all exported files.
   • Additional options may be displayed depending on the export format:
     • STC25 format - Set the grid format.
     • MSCC XML format - Choose which version of the MSCC XML format the files are to be export as from the Format dropdown list. To export image files, check the Export defect images option.
     • BEFDSS XML format - To export image files, check the Export defect images option. Select the format to which data is to be exported. Select the field to be used to determine the order in which the surveys will be exported and whether to sort in ascending or descending order.

     • MACP format - To export image files, check the Export Images option. Set the status of the Export with imperial units option to export using imperial or metric units.

     • PACP/LACP format - Select the Custom Field to which the Survey ID will be exported. If None is selected, the ID will not be exported. Select which version of PACP/LACP the files are to be exported as. If image files are to be included in the export, check the Export images box. Set the status of the Export with imperial units option to export using imperial or metric units.

       Note: Invalid defect codes will not be exported.

2. Click OK.

   All files are exported to the chosen directory. Data files use the name selected. Image files are given a unique identifier and do not retain the filenames they had when imported.

   A log file displays any export errors, with each type of error shown differently. You should use this information to correct the original data.
