====== Oblique Data Preparation and Import Templates ======

This page gives an overview on the Orbit oblique mapping import templates and how to prepare your data for import. \\
It is strongly recommended to read first [[180:technology:3d_mapping:about_resources_oblique|]].

<note tip>
Orbit imports [[180:technology:3d_mapping:supported_resources_oblique|Supported Oblique Resources]] into an Orbit Oblique Project using intelligent Import Templates.

An **Orbit import template** is a predefined set configurations, containing all technical details of the oblique mapping system. A template is exactly configured according a given setup, used sensors and available resources. This technique simplifies and standardizes the workflow to import a well known set of oblique resources.
