8.6 SeaClass
Backscatter and snippet results can be classified using Perspective’s SeaClass module.
Note that having bottom samples or other ground-truth information such as video,
pictures or diver’s notes will increase the accuracy of the results. For more information
regarding using SeaClass to classify multibeam backscatter/snippets, see the SeaClass
User Guide available for download from our support website at:
9.0 Export
Exporting allows the user to save the processing results from Perspective into several
different digital formats as well as paper records. Processed soundings can be preserved
in two formats, GSF and HTF, while several options are available for saving the gridded
results.
9.1 HTF
During the gridding process it is possible to create an HTF (Hydrographic Transfer
Format) file for each input data file. To create HTF files during the gridding process,
make sure to select the checkbox on the Ancillary Options page of the BathyOne wizard
and complete the HTF
Settings dialog shown
to the right.
Please note that
selecting this option
will greatly increase
the amount of time it
takes to process your
data in order to
generate these large
ASCII data records of
the processed
soundings data for each
input line.
