3.6 Contact Settings
Size (meters): This is where the user selects the size of the contact to be saved, in meters.
Bookmarks: The user can select whether or not to show bookmarks in the Waterfall view.
Targeting Paths: It is recommended that the user choose the same directory paths for
Perspective and TargetOne. If both programs use the same directory paths, contacts that are
saved in TargetOne will automatically be displayed in Perspective.
Temporary: The user can select where to have TargetOne keep contacts until they are saved.
Saved: The user can select
where to have TargetOne
save contacts once they have
been temporarily saved in
TargetOne. Note that this
needs to be different from
temp directory.
Note that the temporary and
saved file paths must be
different.
Contact Usage: The contact
generated from Perspective
can either be sent to
TargetOne or to an XML
file. Contacts sent to
TargetOne will have the
Triton Imaging Inc .CON file
format.
A contact generated as XML
contains the parameters
required to queue external programs to areas of interest within the mosaic. Included in the
XML structure is a link to a geo-referenced TIFF file (.tif + .tfw) that is the snapshot from the
Perspective Mosaic.
XML contacts can contain links to other types of imagery such as AUV mounted optical
cameras.
Threshold:
Use Target One setting: Set the default display threshold using the TargetOne settings.
Calculate from data: Set the display threshold by calculating the value from the data file.
