Export location and measurement markups

You can export geospatial location and measurement data to an FDF file. Each geospatial annotation has a GPTS entry. The entry corresponds to the latitude and longitude for each of the annotation points. The types of information that can be exported include the following:

  • Marked locations entered by using the Geospatial Location tool

  • Distance, perimeter (compound distance), and area measurements entered by using the Measurement tool over geospatial content

Geospatial data can be exported by using either the Comments menu or the Comments pane.

  • From the Comments menu, choose Comments > Export Comments To Data File.

  • Open the Comments pane, choose Options > Export Comments To Data File.

To export a subset of the comments, select the comments, and then choose Options > Export Selected Comments. Then, type the filename and click Save. The FDF file is saved.
