# Exporting Data
## 
Exporting allows data to be transferred to other programs. If you’re wanting to work within T3RRA, click the **[“Save Proj”](https://t3rra.freshdesk.com/en/support/solutions/articles/51000404411-save-project)** button at the top of the screen - it is far easier to work with this format than exporting and then re-importing the data.
Steps to export data
1. Select the export format you want on the left.
2. Choose the data you wish to export. Clicking the button will allow you to change how the layer is exported (say if you wished to export a design surface as an elevation).
3. Provide any additional information required (such as which projection you need) and click “Export”.
