# Add New Face Positions Using a Geometry File

1. In the right-hand pane of the Setup Development > Tracking tab, in the Current date field, click the Calendar button and select the current date.

Note: This does not have to be today's date, but it must be a date after the most recent face location you want to add to the headings.

2. In the 3D Canvas, click Display Menu, and select Layers.

The Layers form appears.

3. In the Geometries data grid, click Insert.

The Choose a Geometry form appears.

4. Select the geometry file that contains the data for the surveyed face locations.
5. Click Open.

The file you selected appears in the Geometries data grid, and the geometry file is displayed in the 3D Canvas.

6. In the Layers form, click Close.
7. In the Modes pane, click Orbit.
8. Manipulate the 3D Canvas so you can see the position of a face location displayed by the geometry file on a heading.

Tip: Setting the transparency of the geometry file can make it easier to see the position of faces on the heading.

9. In the Modes pane, click Add.
10. In the 3D Canvas, click the heading at the position at which it is intersected by the face of the geometry.

Note: If you want to add tracking data to a heading that requires previous headings to be mined, you must add tracking data for the previous headings which records that sufficient mining is complete in the previous headings that the heading of interest is available for mining.

A new row appears in the Tracking data grid, with the columns filled for the Heading, Length, and % Complete based on the position you selected in the 3D Canvas.

11. In the Date column of the Tracking data grid, click the Calendar button and select the date at which the face position was reached.
