Importing surfaces

You can import surfaces into Echoview from supported surface file formats and use them to exclude samples from analysis or add them to scenes.

Importing a surface

To import a surface:

On the File menu, click Import.
Select a surface file format and select the file.
Click Open.
In the Surface name box, enter a name for the surface. Echoview suggests part of a name and expects further text to be entered before completing the import process.
In the Maximum triangulation distance (m) text box, enter the maximum allowable distance between points in the surface. Where this distance is exceeded a gap will be displayed in the surface.
Click Import.
