Analyze Region dialog box
The Analyze Region dialog box displays the analysis results for a region on a single target echogram.
To display the Analyze Region dialog box:
-
Point to an analysis region on a single target echogram.
-
On the Shortcut menu (right-click), click Analyze Region.
The following information and settings are available:
Analysis variable |
Description |
General | |
TS mean |
The mean in the linear domain of the compensated TS values of the targets in the region. |
TS minimum |
The minimum compensated TS of the targets in the region. |
TS maximum |
The maximum compensated TS of the targets in the region. |
TS Standard Deviation |
The standard deviation of the backscattering cross section taken in the linear domain. |
Domain | |
Beam volume sum |
The sum of the beam volumes of all pings in the region, see Beam_volume_sum for more information. |
Target range/depth mean |
The average range/depth of all targets in the region, see About depth, range and altitude. |
Target length mean |
The average target length of all targets in the region. See About target length mean. Note: Only variables that include target length estimations will display a result. See About target properties. |
Exclude below line range/depth mean |
The mean range/depth of the exclude-below line over the range of pings covered by the region, see About depth, range and altitude. Note: Only pings with a line status of 'good' are used in this calculation. |
Counts | |
Single targets |
The number of single targets in the region. |
Pings |
The number of pings in the region. |
Warning: Depth mean is calculated using Target_on_axis_depth not Target_true_depth, and targets are excluded based on their target_on_axis_depth value not their target_true_depth value.
Linked
Select Linked to link the displayed results to the currently activated region or selection. The displayed results will update as you select subsequent regions or selections of the echogram.
Notes: With Linked selected, the dialog box will respond to the activated region on the Region browser and the Regions window.
