Users can batch create RAF files from BLK2GO data using a command-line interface to rapidly process data and access RAF files without manual intervention.
Option to set WayPoint interval.
interval=(n), n being the distance in meters.
Example: interval=10, this would create a WayPoint every 10 meters.
Option to create WayPoints from GeoTags
The command is: geotag-waypoints
Using this command will add GeoTags for every detailed image captured in the field.

In this example, the staging folder is set to d:\staging. The folder can be set to any local drive.
4. Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS will start up in the background. A dialog will appear that indicates that Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS is monitoring the staging directory.
5. Copy any amount of B2G files into the staging folder. Once copied, Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS will start to process the B2G files into RAF archives automatically.
6. Once finished processing all B2G files, Cyclone REGISTER 360 PLUS will continue to monitor the staging folder for additional B2G files. REGISTER 360 will process additional once more b2g files are added.
