    SMI V6 & V7 (.raw)
    Wildsoft2 GIF-10 (.fld)

    Digital Elevation Model Raster Files:

    DTED
    ERDAS IMG
    Spot Dimap
    USGS DEM
    USGS STDS
    GeoTiff

    Terrain Model Formats:

    GEOPAK TIN
    InRoads DTM
    MX FIL
    LandXML 1.2
    LIDAR XYZ files
    LIDAR LAS files
    MicroStation Point Cloud element (Note: This option is available with the V8i SELECTseries 2 products)

    At this link Data Acquisition you can find videos running through various feature of the Data Acquisition tool.

    To transfer the survey to MX you need to select Export to MX in the right click menu as shown below. This function is available for Field Books and Surfaces.

    When you click MX modelfile you will have to browse to the model.fil of the project and the model will be exported to a model with the same name. Field Book will export to a string model and Surfaces will export to a triangulation model.
