&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;ContextCapture &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;allows you to import all needed information to create a block from an XML or an Excel file (.xls). This is useful in many situations, including the case of aerial projects containing a large amount of photos, when orientation and positioning values are known a priori, either coarse values or accurate values estimated by third party software. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;While the concepts are generally known, it appears that many of them are ambiguous and depend on conventions. This tutorial will guide you in this convention jungle. It will teach you how to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;import data from Excel and XML files, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;how to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;check the consistency and the accuracy of the imported data &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;how to correct &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri,Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;them if necessary. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
