The Depth tab

The processed depth coordinate point data associated to the trip selected in the BioBase trip viewer are listed in the Depth tab (not available for merges).

When you select a row in the Depth tab, it is highlighted with color yellow (A). The highlighted row is positioned according to the location of the yellow dot displayed on the track (B) and the appropriate position in the sonar imagery (C).

Note: All positions are linked/synced.


Deleting bathymetry/contours

For various reasons, a user may need to delete erroneous data and create an updated map.

You can delete selected or multiple ranges of depth data.

To delete a selected data range, tick on the checkboxes and click the Delete Selected Coordinates button.

To delete a large/multiple data range, click the Modify Coordinates button found above the table tabs.

By clicking the button, a dialog box is displayed. Use the dialog to specify the range of data you want to delete and/or replace with different values of depth or vegetation. You cannot modify the values of the composition data (delete only).

To update the changes made to your trip, you must reprocess the trip. Refer to the Trip Reprocessing section described in this manual.

Note: You must reprocess the selected trip to apply the changes made to your map and update the associated EcoSound summary report.
Note: You can sort table rows by clicking on the header. A browser refresh resorts by Reference No. (e.g., trip starting location).
