All options launch the same export wizard. For bathymetry exports, only bathymetry data is
available for inclusion in the export. For sidescan exports, only sidescan data is available to
be included in the export as shown below:
Options available in this window include:
Resolution: Sets the output file resolution in meters/pixel. The size of the output file
in pixels will show next to Dimensions, just below the resolution.
Range: Sets the default zoom range above the Earth for opening the file with Google
Earth.
Tiles/Export: The slider bar below Dimensions is for indicating the number of tiles to
break up the export image, in order to reduce the individual file size of the output.
The image above shows the output in 48 tiles with resulting dimensions of each tile
being 256 x 231 pixels.
Checkbox: Automatically launch Google Earth and insert the exported KML file for
viewing at the distance above ground specified above.
Selection Tree: Allows the user to select or deselect imagery for the export.
Selecting the Export button will open the ‘Save KML’ browser window for selecting a
location and file name for the export.
If the checkbox was selected, then Google Earth will automatically launch and open the
exported file. Please note that Google Earth needs to be installed on your computer for the
auto-launch feature to work.
