Ascii Export from GPS Pathfinder Office
In this blog post we will provide you tips and a link to a video on how to create an ASCII file Export for GPS Pathfinder Office.
Some tips before you setup the ASCII template for Exporting from GPS Pathfinder Office:
- Know your Coordinate System, Datum and Units you wish to Export to.
- Are you wanting to export out any GNSS Metadata?
- What export type do you want to use? txt, csv, asc, xls? I prefer to use “csv” for this export setup.
- If you would like to use “Template as Heading” in your exported ASCII file please check the box next to it. If the box is grayed out then you need to have selected on the previous screen “One Set of Files Per Feature Type” (See screen shots below – click on them to view in new browser).
- See this video link: How to create an ASCII export setup in Trimble’s Pathfinder Office Desktop Software This will walk you thru the ASCII Export process. I would like to thank Eric Bock at NEI (a fellow Trimble Certified trainer/Trimble Dealer) for creating this great video.
