• GPS Control Point H/V: These flags identify points to be

included in the localization control point list and whether to
use those points for the horizontal and/or vertical solution.

4. If you change either the plane or geodetic location, and the point

has geodetic coordinates, will be warned of the possible

consequences, and, depending on your projection settings,

prompted to rectify the plane and geodetic coordinate before
accepting.

Import

You can use File > Import or File > Import Control to add point, line,

and coordinate system values from a number of input file types. This
section describes importing geodetic coordinates and coordinate

systems into the job file.

Import Job (Control)

You can use the Import or Import Control screens and set the Type to
Job Files

to add points to your job from another job file. Points from

the imported job will be copied into your current job file. The
imported job file can also be used to set the coordinate system of the

current job file:

• If the imported job has a coordinate system set and your current

job does not, you will be prompted if you want to set the

coordinate system from the imported job file.

• If the imported job and the current job have different coordinate

systems set, then you will be prompted that they are different;

you can cancel the import or import the points but keep the
current job projection.

Import ASCII File

You can use the Import screen and set the Type to Text Files to add
points to your job from an ASCII text file. The ASCII Import Wizard
allows you to import Plane, Geodetic (DMS), and Geodetic (decimal)

coordinates. When you import Geodetic (DMS) and Geodetic (decimal)
coordinates Survey Pro will use the following rules to set the plane

location:
