We accept a wide variety of file types which are stored in Content and Workspaces.
All of your files are colour-coded and icon-labelled to help you quickly understand what type of content has been uploaded to your project.
Whether it’s a 3D model, a 2D plan, a geolocated photo, or a document, each file has a unique visual marker to show how it behaves in Sensat; whether it’s visualised in 2D or 3D, or simply stored for reference.
Use the guide below to understand what each colour and icon means.

Additional Icons & Indicators
Synced from CDE
Files that have been synchronised from a Common Data Environment (CDE) will display a circular arrow icon in the bottom-right of their icon. The colour of the icon will correlate to the type of data it is.
Repositioned Content
If a file has been manually moved , you’ll see small arrows in the corners of its icon. This helps you identify content that no longer sits at its original geolocation.
Orion-generated result
GeoJSON layers created from Orion searches are marked with a ✨ ‘sparkles’ in the corner of it's icon.
