Export Orthoimage Files (.tiff, .txt)

Use the Orthoimage exporter to export a TIFF (.tif) file containing an image and a text (.txt) file containing coordinates for the image's corners from an orthoimage/orthophoto or georeferenced image that was created in, or imported into, your project. The text file, which is used if you import the image into another <ProdutAbbrev> project, includes 3D corner coordinates for orthoimages/orthophotos and 2D corner coordinates for georeferenced images.

Note: You can create orthoimages in your project using the Create Orthophoto and Create Rectified Image commands. You can create georeferenced images using the Georeference Image command.

To export orthoimage files:

  1. Select Export in Home > Data Exchange.
  2. In the Export pane, select the CAD tab and select Orthoimage exporter.
  3. Click in the Data field. Then use the Project Explorer or a graphic view or to select the orthoimage or georeferenced image you want to export.

    Optionally, click the Options button and select an appropriate selection option.

  4. Optionally, in the File Name field, change the default export file name. If necessary, click the Browse button to specify a location for the export file other than the project folder.

    Note that the Save File Remotely button, which can be used to save a file to a remote location such as Trimble Connect, is disabled for this exporter. This is due to the fact that two files are created on export (the TIFF image file and the TXT coordinates file) and this command does not support multi-file exports.

  5. Click Export.
