# Blue Locate Tool – Import/Export Models

Both the Layout Model and Node Model types support being exported and imported into other Blue Locate tools. This allows you to quickly create new models, based on an existing model by importing a previously created model.

When exporting a model, VisionPro Deep Learning will package all of the information about the model into a model archive file. Then, when importing a model archive file into another Locate tool, a duplicate of the model is created.
