# Create GeoTag

In addition to viewing and editing GeoTags created upstream, users can create new GeoTags in TruView. GeoTags created within TruView must be saved to the LGSx file.

## To create a GeoTag:

- GeoTags can be created by clicking on the **Create GeoTag** button on the right hand corner of GeoTag panel. ![image-20260128-103410.png](https://cdn.document360.io/820e11db-8ed5-45ae-ac86-f6b77dcb2aa7/Images/Documentation/image-20260128-103410.png)
- Select the location in the point cloud where you would like to place the GeoTag.
- Enter a GeoTag name. This is the only field required to create a GeoTag.

Categories can now be multiple and each one can be a list or a free text (select “+”).

The category Manager manages a category database valid for all Geotags within the project.

- Category values are a list of text fields with a matching color
- Assets can be multiple. One asset image can be chosen to define the Geotag preview (visible when hovering the Geotag in the scene or when entering edit Geotag) ![image-20260128-103635.png](https://cdn.document360.io/820e11db-8ed5-45ae-ac86-f6b77dcb2aa7/Images/Documentation/image-20260128-103635.png)
- Click **OK** to create the GeoTag.

> [!WARNING]
> The new GeoTags are not yet compatible with Cyclone ENTERPRISE.
