6.6 Move Line

To accommodate for layback errors in data from towed sidescan sonars, Perspective has a
tool which allows the user to move a sidescan line to align features to known locations or to
features on adjacent lines.

This tool is launched by right-clicking on an individual data file within a sidescan mosaic as
shown below:

Selecting the Move Line option will open a separate window which shows the mosaiced lines
with the selected line not fixed and available for moving around the screen. The image below
is an example of the Move Line Tool window showing four lines of data:

The selected sidescan line can easily be moved around the screen by simply clicking
anywhere in the window and moving the cursor around while holding the click button down.
The following image shows the results of a line move:
