This dialog is used to select additional output files to be created during an adjustment:
Create Coordinate (PTS) File - When selected, a coordinate file will be created
during an adjustment. This is a text file which will have the name of your project
plus a “PTS” extension (i.e. SouthPark.pts). This file can be viewed from a selection
in the Output menu.
Points in this file (and the “GND” file below) are created using a format selected
from the Format dropdown menu. The “Default” format will satisfy most needs, but
you might prefer to select another format (i.e. “comma separated”) that your COGO
program can read directly. A few standard formats are supplied and others may be
defined by you. See “The Points Reformatter” in Chapter 9, “Tools” for full details
on using these formats and creating your own output formats.
Create Ground Scale Coordinate (GND) File – When selected, a coordinate file is
created based on “Ground File” parameters you provide by pressing the “Settings”
button. The main purpose of creating this file is to provide a set of ground scaled
coordinates from adjusted grid coordinates. Calculations available include scaling,
rotation and translation. This is a text file which will have the name of your project
plus a “GND” extension (i.e. SouthPark.gnd) and it can be viewed from a selection
in the Output menu. See “Creating a Ground Scale File” directly following this
section for full details.
