To load data in Sift you will need to have created CMZ files. CMZ files are compressed Visual3D workspaces that contain both pure data and calculated values. If you are familiar with Visual3D, you may already know how to create CMZ files in the Visual3D interface. The Build CMZ feature in Sift is designed to automate the generation of CMZ files so that they do not have to be created one by one. | To load data in Sift you will need to have created CMZ files.
