Remove Duplicate Points

Use this function to remove duplicate points from the application layer.

Where do I find the dialog?

Right-click in the horizontal list field for points and select Remove duplicate points...

Functionality

The function identifies and removes duplicate points based on coordinates:

• Identical points: Points with the same X, Y, and Z coordinates
• Partially identical points: Points with the same X and Y coordinates, but different Z (elevation)

Note

If you have two, three, or more identical points, you will be left with one point after running the function.

Example

Before removal:

298651.991  6695717.464  10.000
298653.040  6695715.943  10.000
298654.433  6695717.357  10.000
298654.433  6695717.357  10.000  ← Duplicate
298654.433  6695717.357  10.000  ← Duplicate

After removal:

298651.991  6695717.464  10.000
298653.040  6695715.943  10.000
298654.433  6695717.357  10.000

Handling Points with Different Elevations

Info

For points with identical X and Y coordinates (East, North), but different Z (elevation), you can set criteria for which points to remove.
