Convert gINT database
Introduction
This tutorial will guide you through the process of converting gINT database files into GeoDinML. The gINT converter will convert the groups PROJECT, LITHOLOGY, POINT, and SAMPLING into GeoDinML format. If any groups or parameters are missing, adjustments must be made to the gINT database file before conversion.
Conversion Process
Open the gINT Converter
Choose your gINT database. It can be either a gINT database (.gpj) or a Microsoft Access database (.mdb or .accdb)

The conversion process will begin automatically. The gINT converter will convert the groups PROJECT, LITHOLOGY, POINT, and SAMPLING into GeoDinML format.

Once the conversion is complete, save the GeoDinML file to the desired location

Troubleshooting
If the uploaded gINT database does not match the mapping schema, the gINT converter will provide information indicating which mandatory groups or parameters are missing.

You can then adjust the corresponding tables and parameters within the gINT database file either directly in gINT or by renaming the file extension to .mdb
or .accdb
and making the necessary changes in Microsoft Access.
