Project Review

When you create a new Project or open an existing Project; you will have the option to review the Project Files screen.

Here you can confirm the files associated with the Project and change or add files as needed.

Set Active Raw File

This indicates the name of the raw file that is going to be used. You can select a different one by pressing the button and either generate a new raw file name or choosing an existing raw file to open.

The Encrypted option indicates whether or not this raw file is encrypted. You can only change this option when creating a new Project; once set, this option cannot be undone. Encrypting the raw file ensures that users cannot accidentally or intentionally edit their raw files with a text editor or other software. The state of the encryption toggle is retained for subsequent new Projects.

Note:

At this time, no other applications besides FieldGenius 7 (or newer) and MicroSurvey CAD 2014 (or newer) can read an encrypted raw file. Previous versions of MicroSurvey CAD, inCAD, and FieldGenius will not be able to read FieldGenius encrypted raw files.

Set Project AutoMap

This indicates the AutoMap Library Template that will be loaded into the Project. You can change it by pressing the button and either choosing a different template library or creating a new blank library. AutoMap files contain pre-defined descriptions that can be used in FieldGenius. The template library that you select will be copied into the Project's folder with a name of ProjectName_automap.csv, and any changes that you make to the AutoMap Library will affect only the Project library, not the template library.

Set Feature File

Use this to select a feature list that you want to use with the Project, for collecting GIS point attributes.
