The SurveyDataEx (Survey Data Exchange) library handles the core objects used to import and export survey data to and from data collector observation files, ASCII files, and other sources. The objects in this library are used to ensure data integrity when merging imported data with pre-existing data in a survey dataset. Data exchange objects may be used through ArcCatalog, ArcMap, or instantiated and executed through standalone applications.
 
The fundamental survey data exchange objects that users interact with are Survey Converters. These objects are registered in two component categories: ESRI Survey Analyst Survey Import Converters and ESRI Survey Analyst Survey Export Converters. Custom survey converters must also be registered in these component categories.
 
The core ArcGIS Survey Analyst extension supports the following import con- verters: Configurable ASCII coordinate importer, Geodimeter, Geo Serial Inter- face, Tripod Data Systems, and Sokkia SDR. In addition, its export converters allow transfer of coordinates into these same formats.
