Tracks reconstructed in ITk get extended to the surfaces of HGTD, where compatible hits get selected. In the extension process, the track is not altered. Currently the information from the selected hits in HGTD is retrieved and decorations added to the track. After this, the newly found track states are deleted. This might be changed in the future, where a dedicated object is written out, and a connection (link) between a track and its extension to HGTD stored.
