On the input side, there is an File/Import/Tracker Locations option and an File/Import/Extra Points (Helper Points) option. Neither has any controls; they automatically detect whether the name is at the beginning or end of the line. Putting the names at the end of each line is most flexible, because then there is no problem with spaces embedded in the file name. A sample file might consist of lines such as:
0 0 0 Origin
10 0 0 OnXAxis
13 -5 0 OnGroundPlane
22 10 0 AnotherGroundPlane
3 4 12 LightPole
When importing trackers, the coordinates are automatically set up as a seed position on the tracker. You may want to change it to a Lock constraint as well. If a tracker of the given name does not exist, a new tracker will be created.
You can also export point locations from Google Earth as a JSON file, then use “File/Import/Trackers/Google Earth XYZ tracker positions” to set the coordinates of (existing) trackers with those names. That import also puts the XYZ data onto the clipboard in the same format as File/Import/Tracker Locations.
