 The database requires a **GUID (Globally Unique Identifier)** to uniquely identify each entry. A GUID is a 128-bit value written as a string in a fixed format, using five groups of hexadecimal digits separated by hyphens, in the 8-4-4-4-12 pattern. The database requires a **GUID (Globally Unique Identifier)** to uniquely identify each entry.

 When using GeoCloud LARCOS, this specialized interpretation database is the file that is uploaded when you perform a check-in of your model edits. The edits are made in Geocene3D and then uploaded to the GeoCloud LARCOS website during the check-in process. Any interpretation points you have added or modified are stored in the SpatiaLite database and transferred to the cloud. These points are then used to update the current model in the cloud environment, ensuring that your changes are reflected and made available to other users or cloud-based workflows. When using GeoCloud LARCOS, this specialized interpretation database is the file that is uploaded when you perform a check-in of your model edits.

-In GeoCloud LARCOS, all interpretation points from different layers are merged into a single table, where all existing points also reside. Because of this, it is essential that every GUID is globally unique across all tables in the SpatiaLite interpretation database. This prevents identifier conflicts and ensures that each point can be correctly recognized and updated without affecting unrelated data. This design reinforces the rule described in the **Required Field: GUID in Specific Format** section — GUIDs must never be reused, even between different interpretation layers.+In GeoCloud LARCOS, all interpretation points from different layers are merged into a single table, where all existing points also reside.
