# AGS Export

GeoDin enables you to export AGS files in compliance with the AGS 4.0.4 and AGS 4.1.1 standards. AGS exports are available for the Geotechnical object type **G1 Location**, and run through the Publish and Export feature.

## Step-by-Step Guide

### 1. Select Boreholes for Export

Begin by selecting the boreholes you wish to export. You can choose from:

* **All objects**
* **Location**
* **A group**
* **A query**

### 2. Open the Publish and Export Method

After selecting the boreholes, navigate to the *Publish and Export* method.

### 3. Choose Export to AGS-format

Within the *Publish and Export* method, select the *Export to AGS-format* option.

### 4. Define the AGS Standard

In the export area, select the AGS standard you want to use by choosing the corresponding AED file.

### 5. Provide Details for AGS Group "TRAN"

In the *TRAN* section, enter all necessary details for the AGS group *TRAN*.

### 6. User defined groups

To exclude specific groups from the AGS export, check the *User defined groups* option.

### 7. Execute the Export

Once you have made your selections, click the *Execute* button to perform the AGS export.

## Additional Options

### Export Object to separate AGS files

By selecting this option, an AGS file will be created for each object.

### Select coding standard

If you need to export according to a specific coding standard, choose your desired standard from the drop-down menu. Ensure that a lithological description according to the selected coding standard is available within the object. By default, the first encountered coding standard will be used.
