Comma Separated File (.csv) |
Import data in almost any custom, client-specific data format saved as a text file. Importing comma-separated-values (CSV) files significantly decreases the amount of time that it takes to import data into Touchstone. CSV files are simple text files that store exposure data in a tabular format. Each line in the file is a separate entry in the table, and each entry has a pre-defined number of columns that are separated by commas. You can use any spreadsheet application (e.g., Microsoft Excel) or text editor (e.g., Notepad) to read and edit the files. You use AIR ImportExpress to configure column-mapping and value-mapping settings for these text files. You can also import text files that use other types of delimiters. Set the desired delimiter on the AIR ImportExpress Options tab. See Importing CSV Files. |

EDM Format |
Import RMS-EDM exposure databases. Even when data is not stored in an open data format, you can still use AIR ImportExpress to import data that is stored in RMS's EDM databases. |
