Introduction
Geocap Seafloor can compare data from different datasets by viewing the data in a cross section view. By changing the visualisation attributes it is possible to identify problems in the data. In this exercise the data will be visualised in both 3D and 2D.

Compare two overlapping survey lines against each otherMake sure you have displayed two overlapping survey lines in the graphics window, using the same method as in one of the previous exercises. For instance, display the two lines 0000_20060112_130156_Simrad_echo.all and 0001_20060112_131814_Simrad_echo.all. - In the Geocap main window, click Windows > New > Cross Section Window. The cross section window will appear at the bottom of the screen.
 - In the cross section window click the arrow to right of the icon, and open the menu.
- Click the Digitize cross section entry in menu.
- Create a profile over the overlapping area, by digitizing two points in the graphics window using your left mouse button.
You should now see the multibeam soundings along the profile in the cross section window. You can zoom using your right mouse button, use the left mouse button to pan and the mouse wheel to scale the z-direction. |
