Profiling mode allows you to view a real-time 3D point cloud of the sea bottom or structures under the water. The profile point data can be exported to a file so that third-party software can extract depth, distance, and volume measurements.
TipIn the Profiling Settings dialog box, you can choose to display only the sonar view, only the 3D Point Cloud, or both. If you can’t see the 3D Point Cloud, ensure that either Image and Profile or Profile Only are selected. You can also change the point cloud display parameters in this dialog box.
To change the depth range settings in the 3D Point Cloud window, click Depth, uncheck the Adaptive Palette box, enter the top and bottom depth, then click Apply. To change the colour scale of the 3D Point Cloud, click Depth, check the Adaptive Palette box, then click Apply.
