====== Feature Extraction Overview ======

There are 3 methods to store a [[110:mobile_mapping:desktop:mobile_mapping:use:measure|mobile mapping measurement]] as a feature, a vector dataset object. 

===== Asset Inventory =====

Using the Asset Inventory procedures administrators and operators are guided to organize and extract features in the most efficient way :
  * multiple concurrent users
  * one central database
  * attach snapshots and documents to assets
  * auto attach snapshots to assets
  * use intelligent measure attributes to complete attribute information
  * log production (date, time, operator)
  * dedicated administration procedures to import, manage and export asset inventory themes
