Import Point File (coordinates)

This extension handles point files with coordinates and some basic coding to connect points that share their featurecode.

There are some specific setting the user can define in Options panel:

  • File Format : the user can choose between PENZC or PNEZC|D
  • Field Delimiter : the user can define what character is used to separate fields from one another

The file format PENZC expects the following information:

  • point number (P)
  • easting (X)
  • northing (Y)
  • elevation (Z)
  • featurecode (C)

The file format PNEZC|D expects the following information:

  • point number (P)
  • northing (Y)
  • easting (X)
  • elevation (Z)
  • featurecode (C) followed by “|” followed by description (D)

All points that share the same featurecode will be connected using straight segments, using the order of appearance in the coordinate file.
