Codelists are used to help describe the

data features that you collect GPS data

for, in the field. Leica GISDataPro

software package is used to create or edit

codelists for use with the GIS20.

you plan on creating your own), or

select an existing codelist. Press OK.

Select the TOOLS menu from the

Main Menu, and then choose

Codelist Manager.
