+===== Highlights 21.1 =====
+A lot of new features and improvements raise the Orbit 3DM products to the next level, ready to challenge 2021 requirements and expectations for managing, extracting features, and web sharing of reality data resources.
+The recorded What's New presentation can be watched on-demand [[https://event.on24.com/eventRegistration/EventLobbyServlet?target=reg20.jsp&partnerref=Email&sap-outbound-id=B9349A506606EE31D0290B179451B4CD4E94C9D9&utm_source=SAPHybris&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=SEND_TEST&campaign_name=SEND_TEST&utm_term=ORBIT_21.1_WBNR_OR_GL_21_01___Register+Now___90660&utm_content=EN&eventid=2956477&sessionid=1&key=976E6A49267447196002504E8122C09D&regTag=1966729&V2=false&ext_event_user_cd=B9349A506606EE31D0290B179451B4CD4E94C9D9&sourcepage=register|here]].
+=== Orbit 3DM Content Manager ===
+Automated data imports, newly supported formats, workflows to directly import image Exif headers and E57 resources, advanced insights on your point cloud, and mapping resources are just some of the new features added to the 3DM Content Manager. \\
+The product is becoming inevitable to manage your large-scale mapping programs.
+=== Orbit 3DM Feature Extraction ===
+Newly developed database connections, measurements to get poles and its utility attachments & metadata properly stored, workflows to review and update your tree inventory database, and procedures to visualize your AI-detected features empower the Feature Extraction products.
+=== Orbit 3DM Publisher, Cloud, Viewer, and Plugins ===
+A lot of effort was done to improve the user experience, facilitate access to vector data objects, customize the display of reality resource footprints, and increase the performance to manage and stream extremely large projects.
+The Publisher backend can be configured to log all activity and a new 3DM Viewer plugin has been developed for Bentley's iTwin platform.

   * Create Odb to Existing Database Table \\ The new wizard 'New Vector Database Resource Connection' connects to an existing database table and creates the corresponding odb file.
   * Preset Configuration for New Database Resource \\ Creating a new database resource has the option to select a preset configuration like for creating a new vector file resource.
   * Removed Dim Indicator for Unaffected Resources \\ The dim indicator is removed for unaffected resources in the dataset list: Point cloud and Mesh.
+  * Update Inspect Panel for Mapping Runs \\ The possibility to edit the display name, CRS and scale range limits for mapping run resources has been removed because they should not be applied. Also, the Joins property has been disabled.
   * Default Merged Procedures \\ The procedures are grouped per mapping type for all desktop products. Feature Extraction has two extra procedures Asset Admin and Asset Inventory.
   * Import Photo Positions for Imagery with Exif Headers \\ Via the procedure, the exif headers of imagery can be read and used to import as photo positions in a mapping run. The omr file should contain the parameter template.exif.import, followed by the camera with exif headers.

   * Add Tags to Resources \\ Via the Inspect Dataset Properties of a resource, tags can be added to a resource. When adding the resource to the 3DM Publisher or uploading to the 3DM Cloud, the tags are automatically added to the resource. General tags can be managed via the Tags Preference.
-  * Set Predefined Target CRS Based on a Specific Source CRS \\ The text file source_target.ini in the program\system\crs folder of the installation, the predefined target CRS for a specific source CRS can be set. There should be two columns where the first column is the source CRS and the second column is the target CRS.
