# Troubleshooting POI Misalignment in New Sites

## **Issue description**

POIs imported are not at the correct locations.

## **Troubleshooting procedure**

### **Root cause**

The POI uses a relative coordinate framework with a designated reference point as the origin of the coordinates. When you import the Dataset or Alignment Bundle, it will be integrated into the coordinate system you established with your new Site. This means that the reference point of the new site will be the reference point for the POIs, so it is essential to ensure that the reference point matches that of the previous instance.

1. When you are performing the POIs export, you are able to see the base point like this.
