Tool | CZMIL > 01 - Import CZMIL Mission to Survey (Tools window) |
The Import CZMIL Mission to Survey process model is used to import CZMIL data files into a new survey file. The import process generates a folder structure to contain the newly-created survey file as well as the mission planning file and mission execution file that are copied over from the input data during import.
• The survey file contains a reference to the raw surveyed data, with properties populated from the mission executable file.
• The mission planning file shows the mission polygon and the survey lines that were planned to be included in the physical survey.
• The mission execution file shows the actual survey lines that were completed.
The resulting survey file is used in future CZMIL processes to generate a clean point cloud of the CZMIL data.
