If {Type} is...<Parameter> is...
Pattern[{PointType}] <NumPoints> {PointDefn}...
Ellipse<SemiMajorAxis> <SemiMinorAxis> <Bearing>

<SemiMajorAxis> and <SemiMinorAxis> are entered in Connect distance units. <Bearing> is entered in degrees.

If the {Type} is <Pattern>, the area defined by the point pairs is closed by connecting the first and last points.

Valid values for {PointType} are LatLon and UTM. If {PointType} is not entered then LatLon is used. The following table describes the valid {PointDefn} parameters:

{PointType}{PointDefn}Description
LatLon<Latitude> <Longitude>Enter the latitude and longitude for each point. <Latitude> and <Longitude> are entered in Connect Latitude and Longitude units (default is degrees).
UTM<ZoneStr> <Easting> <Northing>Enter the points using UTM parameters.

Valid values for <ZoneStr> are A, B, Y, Z or ddc, where 00>dd>61 and c is C-X.

<Easting> and <Northing> are entered in Connect distance units.
