\"NetSpot<\/a><\/p>\n

When you first start a survey in NetSpot, it asks you if you have a map of the space you wish to survey. If you already have a digital file of your map (drawn accurately to scale), select the \u201cFrom file\u201d<\/strong> option and then click the “Select”<\/strong> button. It will bring up a window where you can select the map\u2019s file location on your computer. All standard image file formats, such as GIF, JPEG, PNG and TIFF are compatible, as well as PDF files. Note: for multi-page PDFs, only the first page is used. Once you have the map loaded, proceed to \u201cHow do I start my Survey?<\/a>\u201d.
