    1. Thank you for finding that. This post is an introduction to the many ways of importing site information.

  1. Jonathan, I have to say that plug-in you created to turn the 2D loci with elevation number into a 3D datum point was AWESOME! Thank you for creating this!

    1. You are most welcome Pam. I wrote that some time ago to save myself lots of manual inputting. Of course, manual inputting also opens the possibility of error, while the tool just reads what is on the screen and uses the text directly. Over the years this tool has saved me several hours (probably days).
