===== How-To Import, Optimize and Upload 3D Mapping Data to 3DM Cloud =====

The below-listed videos guide you through the steps from preparing your 3D Mapping data to uploading to the 3DM Cloud. \\ \\
It is advised to first go through [[205:howtoguides:gettingstarteddesktop:index|]]. \\

  - Import and optimize Mapping Resources 
    - [[205:howtoguides:preparedata:import_mm_data|]] - [3:56 min]
    - [[205:howtoguides:preparedata:catalog|]] - [3:47 min]
    - [[205:howtoguides:preparedata:optimizeimagery|]] - [1:51 min]
  - Import and optimize single GIS Resources
      * [[205:howtoguides:preparedata:optimizevector|]] - [ min] \\ Optimize (and set basic legend for) Vector Data > ovf & ovt
      * [[205:howtoguides:preparedata:optimizeimagery|]] - [ min] \\ (multiple tiles into one omi, and this solves only local file based resources. check the notes for online base maps like wms and tiled map resources) 
      * [[205:howtoguides:preparedata:optimizepointcloud|]] - [ min] \\ not required for point clouds part of a mapping run, higher density requires smaller block size, advise to filter at all time to guarantee performant streaming. 
  - Upload optimized resources to 3D Mapping Cloud > workspace datasets (ready to upload) vs catalog. show in Cloud Console (not yet ready if uploading, only resource manager)
