Plan View (.pln) and Vehicle (.veh) Files:
Both Plan View and Vehicle files use the same file format. This format defines a series of
polylines which are lines with two or more points. Each polyline begins with a line of “POLYLINE,Color
number”. Then the points for the polyline are listed on separate lines in X,Y,Z format. If no color is
specified, the color white is used by default. Here is a list of the available color numbers:
