To export a Terrain Tools Field traverse file (.ipd) back to RoadEng:

  • From the Traverse List Screen, Press “Export”

  • Select your export mechanism – Email or iTunes. *We recommended to use Email option (it;'s the easiest!)

NOTE: Email requires use of the Apple "Mail" app. 

  • Send your email. This will attach an .ipd file to your email
  • On the PC running RoadEng desktop software – open the email, save the attachment.
  • Open the Survey Map module.
  • File | Open, select iPad ASCII from the drop down menu.
    *The Description, date and crew do NOT currently import. These will be available in a future update.

NOTE: You will require Softree Products version 7.005 or higher to be able to read the .ipd file. Please use the update checker and install the latest version if you have a lower version.
