Can anybody help me in importing shapefile from GPS(Trimble Geo7x) to BOUD v8i select series 4 with the following issues:
1. Although it is being imported, the location of the points located in the same position.
2. Only one (1) point (point mapped to POLE) of the exported points can be seen in the display.
3. and when i try to export it to KMZ/KMl file, it will be located in some places which is not the actual location of the point.
Please help me with this issues..
thanks
John,
Does the Trimble created shapefile include a .PRJ file? If so, that file would indicate the geographic coordinate system in which the points were collected. The .PRJ file is ASCII format and can be viewed with Notepad or any equivalent text editor. Before importing the shapefile, you would need to ensure that your active design file has been assigned a compatible active geographic coordinate system to allow for the necessary coordinate and/or unit conversions for the points.

Jeff,
The shapefile exported from trimble contains no .PRJ file. Is this may the cause of the error in importing the shapefile into BOUD? It is really neccessary to have a shapefile with .PRJ file in it?
Thanks
