Quick Tour III- Creating a Leica GSI16 Output for use with Free Coding
Quick Tour III is a brief tutorial to create a format file that will output
data in the standard Leica GSI16 format for use with free coded
data. The actual creation and the export variables used for this
format file is virtually identical to the format file we have just created
in Quick Tour II.
Quick Tour III follows on from what you have learnt in
Quick Tours I and II. If you have not yet completed
Quick Tours I and II, it is recommended that you do
so.
Note, this format file can only be used with data that has been coded
using Free coding. This format file could not be used with data that
was surveyed using Thematical coding. No code information
would be output.
We have already created a GSI16 format file that can be used with
data that has been thematically coded in Quick Tour II.
For a brief description of the differences between Thematical and
Free coding, refer to Quick Tour II. For a full description, please refer
to Chapter 8 of the System 500 Technical Reference Manual
which can be found on the SKI-Pro CD.
There is only one difference between this format file for use with
free coding and the format file created in Quick Tour II for use with
thematical coding.
With this format file, the code export variables are entered into the
Code (TPS/GPS) Exportstring. With the format file created in Quick
Tour II, the code export variables were entered into the Fixpoint
(TPS/GPS) Exportstring.
