Location: Choose the storage medium where you want
to store the layer. You can choose either “Main
memory” or “Storage Card” (if there is an SD, or micro-
SD card inserted in the receiver). With MobileMapper
100 or 120, a third option is available (physically
located in the resident memory and named “Storage
Disk”).
•
Folder: Choose a folder where you want to store the
layer you are creating. This choice should be made in
conjunction with the choice of the storage medium
(see
Location).
The
None option stands for either the “My Documents”
folder or the “Storage Disk” folder in the main memory,
or the root folder on the storage card. All other options
available in the drop-down menu will be subfolders of
the “My Documents” folder or the “Storage Disk”
folder in the main memory, or the root folder on the
storage card.
It is a good idea to store your layers in the same storage
medium and folder as the open job so that all the files
created for the job be found at the same location.
If you want to use a specific folder where to store your
layers, first create it using File Explorer. You can only
create new folders in the “My Documents” folder, in
the “Storage Disk” folder or on the storage card.
•
Type: Choose the type and/or format of the layer you
want to create:
SHP layer: Depending on your choice the layer will
hold 2D/3D points, 2D/3D lines, or 2D/3D polygons.
MIF layer (can hold any type of feature).
CSV layer (point feature type only).

Save button to proceed. If you are defining the
second or next layers, go directly to step 5. If you are
defining the first layer in the open job, the program will
first ask you to define a coordinate system for the job:
• First field: Choose the country you are working in. You
may also choose a worldwide system such as UTM or
Worldwide Geodetic System.
• Second field: The number of options available in this
field depends on the selected country. Select the
datum that is suitable for your job.

field depends on the selected country. Choose a
