QPD

Use the button to browse for a QPD file. The filename will be displayed in red when the (last) selected file is not found.

This option is only visible when the source is not the Default QPD.

• Raw
  Original QPD data from an online recording or a replay session will be used.
• Validated (default)
  Filtered QPD data (e.g validated using Qimera or the Validator) will be used.

• NONE, or leave <Empty>
  None of the selected 'Point' sub items will be used.
• ALL
  The selected sub items will be repeated for all available points (or beams) for the current ping
• CENTER
  The center DTM point will be used for the selected 'Point' sub items.
  Formula used to calculate the center point number is: (Number of Points + 1) divided by 2.
  When your selected Transducer is the Detected Pipe, the Top of Pipe will be used.
• Enter individual point id number, and/or comma and/or hyphen (or double-dot) separated.
  For example: "20-230" or "1,5,10,20-30" or "1-10,120,230-240", or "60..70, 80..90".
  Lowest possible point number is 1. The selected sub items will be repeated for each defined beam number
• When your selected Transducer is the Detected Pipe, you should use the following Id:
  • 0: Seabed Left, 1: Trench Left, 2: Top of Pipe, 3: Trench Right, 4: Seabed Right.
    More convenient is to use:
  • TP for Top of Pipe
  • SL for Seabed Left, SR for Seabed Right
  • TL for Trench Left, TR for Trench Right
