Step 5: Selecting or creating codes
for data collection (FEATURING\)
You are now in the FEATURING\
panel. This panel allows you to select
or create codes for data collection.
Codelists can also be created using
the Codelist Manager module within
the GIS DataPRO software.
If in the previous step you selected an
existing codelist, a number of codes
appears in the codelist box. If you
created a new codelist in the previous
step, this listbox is empty.
Pressing F1 CONT finishes this start-
up sequence.
Creating codes
If your codelist contains no codes,
your codelist menu box looks like this:
To create a new code, press F2 C-
LST. Use the right or left cursor key to
select a code list. Press F3 CODES
and then F2 NEW.
Use the right or left cursor key to
choose the code type (point, line, or
polygon). Enter the name of the code,
and a note about the code (optional),
in the appropriate input fields.
As an example, we will create a point
code names Pole. We will input the
following note in the note field, “Offset
to road”. The note field can be used
to describe the manner in which data
is collected for a particular code. In
this example, we are measuring the
pole location from the road. Press F1
CONT to continue.
