Output positions

Output positions command saves trajectory positions into text files. It creates a separate text file for each trajectory file. The format of the output files can be defined in File formats / User trajectory formats of TerraScan Settings. There are also two implemented output formats. The software writes one line for each trajectory position into an output file.

To create text files for trajectory positions:

1. (Optional) Select the trajectories in the list of the Trajectories window for which you want to save positions into text files.

2. Select Output positions command from the File pulldown menu.

This opens the Output Trajectory Positions dialog:
