Transfering map layers from one package to another

Transfering map layers from one package to another

I have just received an arborists report on the state of our Village trees.  It suggests five levels of action from 'fell' to 'no action' for a hundred or so trees.  It has come in a report with trees shown on a Google Map pdf export.  I now have to manually put the locations of those in need of some kind of attention into a PO layer.

This strikes me as tedious and unnecessary.

Can someone advise me if there is a standard universal procedure for exporting a layer from one package in a format that I (or Geosphere, but preferably I) can use to import into PO.  It would save me a lot of time.  If it is, or can be made, routine, then we could insist that people who do this kind of work around our Parish report to us attaching a map layer.
