Projects

As a data entry tool Vegapp features several export formats while import is limited to the app’s own Vegapp format (used for lossless backup and project transfer between devices). Use the projects menu to export or load a project to and from file or to share a project via email. Depending on your device there are other wireless options. Exports to external file formats are sometimes compromised by format restrictions so you should double-check the results.


Generic text format

Text format with tab-separated values (TSV) for general use. For example, you can easily import this table format into R or into spreadsheet programs like Excel or Calc.


Vegapp (projects, profiles and layer systems)

Used for backup or for lossless project transfers between devices. Note that only the file names of photos are saved with a project, not the photos themselves. They must be exported separately. Data entra profiles and layer systems are included with their projects but they can be exported and imported as separate XML files as well. The respective XML exchange files have the prefix "Project_", "Layers_" or "Profile_".


Veg-X

Veg-X is an exchange standard for vegetation data. It is a very open and flexible and at the same time exact format. It is therefore expected to become more important in the future.


Turboveg

For use in TurboVeg or Juice.


KML

Basic KML file with locations and names of the plots for use as waypoints on GPS devices, in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) or in Earth viewers.
