About analysis

You can analyze data in Echoview in many different ways. The most common approaches are:

• On screen analysis

• Exporting analyses

A very common method of analysis is to calculate the echo integral. In Echoview this, and related calculations are termed integration.

• About integration

You can also analyze your data using detection algorithms to identify significant content. Common detection tools used in Echoview are:

• Single target detection

• Fish track detection

• School detection

• Line picking and bottom detection

• Multibeam target detection

• 3D School detection

You can manipulate your data very powerfully using virtual variables prior to analysis, or using any external application of your choice by exporting your data then adding it to Echoview again for visualization and further analysis.

Notes:

• Multi-threaded data file reading runs in the background and calculations that draw on all the data in a fileset (like analysis exports) become available once all data has been read.
• Heave compensation affects the export of range based analysis variables, they are set to a special value.
