Importing a Survey
Survey text files that were created in an older version of Insight, exported from another project or created by hand can be imported into the database.
A survey file can also be imported to redefine a survey's coordinates. Coordinate Reference System conversion can be performed if the survey information is in a different CRS from the Project.
For examples of survey definition text files, see Survey File Examples.
