I am currently running Power Geopak SS4 Version 08.11.09.878 and at some point last week my gpk file became corrupt. Is there a way to repair the gpk?
Cliff, the file size is too big for me to upload (+9000K)
Beebe/ Cliff, is there anything to perhaps avoid corruption? Or is it truly luck (or lack thereof)? Could it be a Power GeoPak version issue? Should I upgrade to 08.11.09.904? Is 904 64 bit compatible as I am running a 64 bit/32G RAM computer and I am looking for a 64bit version anyway.
This particular corruption I believe occurred when the IT department was installing network patches.
I guess I'm confused. Are you working with a GPK dataset or is this an OpenRoads project explorer issue?
GPK dataset, in short we take our field data and import them into a gpk with Power Geopak, visualize the chains, edit the chains, and then generate a .tin.
So you have tried this step? This was always a very handy tool. I have had to divide big topo jobs into multiple GPK files. Seemed like having more that 5000 points in a GPK was a barrier to stability.
Are you importing the survey points using the data sets workflow?
I would recommend using SS4 OpenRoads survey to develop topo surveys and then push the data out to a GPK. That's how we are working projects that have a topo deliverable with Geopak Survey ie GPK files.
Cliff,
Yes were are importing using the datasets workflow and I will try your suggested options...Makes sense on the size limitations, and I will compress at the end of each day that I import new points. Do you know if OpenRoads is a seperate purchase or is it a download? I can't seem to find it on the software download page. Also, attached is a Zip file of the gpk in question. Let me know if you got it.
Thank you for all of your help

Never mind on the OpenRoads question, I found the downloads...It appears to only have MS Connect editions, are there any SS4 V8i options?
This the version I'm currently using, it's V8i.
