# Data Management

The Data List displays datasets added to the project as well as results generated after processing.

## 1 Data Display

When station data is initially added to the Data Management List, it is hidden by default.\
After One-Click Processing is completed, the point cloud is automatically displayed and can be viewed in the main view.\
Click once to display the result; click again to hide it (the icon status changes accordingly).

## 2 Station Selection

To process a dataset, left-click a station node in the Data Management Panel.\
Use **Ctrl + Click** to select multiple stations. After selection, related functions can be applied.

When multiple station nodes are selected, right-click supports:

* **Data Processing** — perform One-Click Processing for multiple datasets.
* **Merge Stations** — merge multiple stations into a single virtual station.

## 3 Right-Click Operation

### Station

Includes:

* **Data Processing** — open the One-Click Processing panel.

  > Note: Merged stations support Mesh and 3DGS generation only, not point-cloud processing.
* **Open Raw Data Path** — locate the original data directory. If the path changes, it can be relinked here.
* **Open Folder** — open the station project directory.
* **Export Data** — export LAS point clouds, photos, and reconstruction results.

* **Duplicate Station** — create a copy that can be processed independently.

  > Note: Merged stations cannot be duplicated.
* **Delete Station** — remove the selected station from the project.
* **Clear Cache** — delete contents of the Cache folder to free storage.

  > Note: Clear only after results are generated, otherwise cache will be rebuilt.
* **Set Alias** — rename the station.
* **Properties** — display metadata such as:
  * Point cloud name
  * Number of points
  * File size
  * Scan duration
  * Trajectory length
  * Scan date
  * Coordinate system information

### Point Cloud

Includes:

* **Show/Hide Data** — toggle point cloud visibility.
* **Open Folder** — open the storage location.
* **Colorization Type** — adjust rendering mode.
* **Export Data** — export the point cloud.
* **Zoom to Point Cloud** — center the view on the dataset (same as Spacebar).

### Trajectory

Includes:

* **Show Data** — load the acquisition trajectory into the view.\
  If control points were captured or long pauses occurred, point IDs are displayed.
* **Open Folder** — open the trajectory file location.

### Photos

Includes:

* **Show Data** — load photo spheres into the main view.
* **Open Folder** — open the photo pose file directory.

### GCP

Includes:

* **Open Data**
* **Edit** — open the control-point editing panel to import files and edit correspondences.
* **Clear Matching** — remove all matches and reset to the unmatched state.

### Mesh

Includes:

* **Show/Hide Data** — toggle model display.
* **Open Folder** — open the model directory.
* **Open in DV** — open the Mesh model in DV.
* **Export Data** — export the Mesh model.
* **Delete Data** — remove the model from both the panel and project folder.

### 3DGS

Includes:

* **Show/Hide Data** — toggle model display.
* **Open Folder** — open the storage directory.
* **Open in Get3D Viewer** — open the 3DGS model in Get3D Viewer
* **Export Data** — export the 3DGS model.
* **Delete Data** — remove the model from the panel and project folder.

## 4 Data Fold and Unfold

At the top of the Data Management Panel:

* Click the **Collapse All** icon to fully collapse nodes.<br>
* Click the **Partial Collapse** icon to partially collapse nodes.<br>
* Click the **Expand All** icon to fully expand nodes.<br>
* Click the **Ascending Sort** icon to sort nodes in ascending order.<br>
* Click the **Descending Sort** icon to sort nodes in descending order.
