Edit Job Site Data
Review and edit your job site data so it can be used on controllers at the site. Prior to editing the site data, make sure that you have imported any point and CAD data that you want to make available to construction crews on site so you can add additional points and objects to the site data as needed. If you want to include a site calibration in your site data, perform the calibration in your project or import a .dc calibration file.
Note: As you specify control points, site map objects, and avoidance zones for the job site, selection sets are created for each. These sets can be used in view filters to control what you see in graphic views.
