The 'Geo Image' toolbox allows downloading satellite images and other sorts of maps on a window defined by mouse clicking. These images can be saved in “*.jpg” format and then i.e. being used by other Deft3D post-processors as background of model results. The standard post-processing tools MUPPET and QUICKPLOT, support (e.g. Quickplot or Muppet) support images in these formats.
An image can be generate using the following steps:
- The image window is defined by clicking on “Draw Outline” in the Working Space and then selecting the window by mouse clicking
...
- Alternatively, the window can be defined by typing the coordinates besides the values “Xmin”, “Xmax”, “Ymin”,
...
- “Ymax“
- Zoom level” defines the resolution of the image with increasing level from 4 to 23. Default the 'auto' option is used.
- Different types of images are available under 'Type' namely
- Aerial: satellite image
- Road maps: map from OpenStreet Maps
- Hybrid: combination between a en b
namely “Aerial”, “Hybrid” and “Road maps “using the key “Type”.
