Planning - LineDatabases

Use this page to select Line Database files and the Points, Lines and Routes from these files to set up a survey.

The line database files are created using the Processing Manager. A quick way to start making lines is to click on the 'Line Planning' button in the Console.
(If not available, then right-click in the lower pane of the Console and select 'Add/Remove QPS Programs'.)
As soon as a line database file is added it can be selected in the top pane.
