Viewing/Editing Data with Office Software
The EZ−Guide 250 lightbar guidance system saves field information in shapefile format. Each shapefile is made
up of three files:
example.shp − position information
•
example.shx − index file that links the position information with its attributes
•
example.dbf − feature attributes
•
Keep these files together when you copy or move the data.
Data collected by the EZ−Guide 250 lightbar can be opened directly into the EZ−Office(TM) software. For more
