3D-Win can utilize some of the stored information for drawing. It is possible, for example, to use the information on a pipe diameter to aid drawing.
Examples:
60 cm pipe is drawn to scale in the picture. In the cross section, its diameter will be displayed in actual size.
The diameter of a tree can be used to help define a symbol size, either directly or corrected with a multiplier.
Attribute data can be copied into Z-field. Triangulate the file and contour lines.
Attribute data has already been stored in the field. 3D’s field measuring program has powerful functions for attribute storage. It can also read attribute data stored by other data loggers e.g. Geodat or Wild. 3D’s field measuring program attribute storage has been made easy to use.
When you have given the codes for a measured point, press 5 attribute, to open a questionnaire for that code. You can give an endless number of attributes to one point. They will be input with the help of the questionnaire. For every question a list of answers can be displayed and selected. These questions and answers can be tailored to meet your requirements
You can use the 3D-Win program to correct and complete attribute data collected on any type of data logger.
When clicking on a point (edit point), the attribute checkbox will appear crossed if the point has been given attribute data. When you select the cross with the mouse the attribute data questionnaire is displaying. You can now add or correct the values. The program offers a list from where attribute values can be selected.
All the files required for giving attribute data in the store program and in the 3D-Win program are user definable.
When the measured data has been checked and corrected, it will normally be transferred to a larger system. The 3D-Win program’s file structure is planned so that data transfer to other systems is easy. 3D-Win is not a GIS, but a system which produces data for GIS’s.
Requirements for the transfer of data to other systems are very specific. It is dependant on the other system, as to how and what information can be transferred.
