Fieldbook Export

Main Menu | Import / Export | Points / Observations | Fieldbook Export

Use this option to export FieldGenius database points and figure information from the current project in a Fieldbook (.FBK) format for import into non-MicroSurvey desktop software such as AutoCAD's Land Development Desktop.

FieldGenius users who have MicroSurvey CAD or inCAD Desktop software will not need to use this function as our products import standard FieldGenius raw data.

This function is designed for post processing so is best used after all fieldwork is complete. The raw file observations are not included in the FBK file, you can read the FieldGenius raw file into Survey Link included with LDD. You can then make your edits to the raw file and import it to LDD.

Importing into LDD

To import the FBK file into LDD you will need to use the Import Field Book from the Data Collection / Input menu.

If you haven't already done so you will want to edit your Description Key list and Figure Prefix Library in LDD so the points and figures will be automatically layered for you.
