Chapter 5: Real Time BathyPro

Real-time BathyPro is a software module that generates a digital terrain mosaic
(DTM) “on the fly” from multibeam bathymetry as it is being recorded or played
back. The mosaic begins as a process launched from Isis. Behind the scenes,
BathyPro then creates the mosaic, which DelphMap then displays. Because the
resulting mosaic is a DDS_VIF file, it can be manipulated and further enhanced
in DelphMap.

Creating a Real-Time Digital Terrain Mosaic

You must have Isis version 5.0 or later, a Sentinel dongle enabled for real-time
BathyPro processing, BathyPro version 1.2 or later, and DelphMap version 2.7 or
later to create a real-time DTM from Isis. You also need to be recording or
playing back a file in Isis.

To run Bathypro Real Time

1. From the Tools menu in Isis choose Realtime BathyPro Map →

Multibeam bathymetry.

Isis prompts you for the location and file name of the BathyPro program:
TEI\TEISuitevn.n\bathypro.exe (where n.n is the current version).

2. Choose bathypro.exe and click Open to run it.

Isis runs both BathyPro and DelphMap, and displays the Bathypro Real
Time dialog box (Figure 44).
