Introduction

Geocap comes with a set of predefined color tables which can be seen in the toolbox. These color tables are of course customizable, or you can create your own color table from scratch.

A color table consists of a finite set of colors. Once the number of colors is set, the color values themselves can be assigned. This is typically done using a combination of interpolation and direct color picking using a color triangle. This is explained below. When applied to a dataset, the colors present in the table are mapped onto the dataset in the range specified in the mapping range field. This mapping range can be changed after a dataset has been displayed.
