Placing a Model: Automatic Placement

Automatic Placement requires high accuracy GNSS. It also requires and uses coordinate system information within the data, or a Site Calibration file associated with the model. To use Automatic Placement, one of the following Site Calibration file formats must be used:

  • Calibration (CAL)

  • JobXML (JXL)

  • Data Collector (DC)

  • World Files (PGW)* For use with PNGs only.

    TIPThese formats can be generated by Trimble Business Center, Trimble Access, Trimble Siteworks, and Trimble SCS900 Site Controller software.

  • Projection files (PRJ) that are included in Esri Shape files.

    When using GIS data—such as Esri Geodatabase or Shape files—that is georeferenced and has been imported into or connected to a Trimble Connect map workspace no calibration file is required. SiteVision will automatically place the Trimble Connect map workspace data (.TMAP files).
