After successfully searching for video or imagery in Search and Discover, you can view and analyze the results in the Results panel. In this panel, you can also preview selected results, view image metadata, and queue images or videos of interest into the cart to be used for further analysis.
Toggle footprints on and off
You can toggle on all footprints to make the footprints of images on the Results tab visible on the search map. By default, footprints are toggled on (visible), but you can toggle them off at any time. Toggling footprints is currently not supported for video services.
Note:
If footprints are toggled off, a yellow footprint appears on the search map when you hover over an image in the results table. See the Table interactions section below for more information.
Toggle images on and off
You can toggle on and off images to see a preview of a selected image overlaid on top of the search map. The image is a full-resolution image that is orthorectified on the fly in map coordinate space. By default, images are toggled off, but you can toggle them on at any time.
Results table
The results table displays a list of images or video returned from a search performed in Search and Discover. You can interact with the results table to further inspect images, such as viewing the metadata of images, previewing images, and selecting images or video to be queued for later use.
Note:
If no results are available or no services are registered for use in the search, a message appears in the results panel.
Table interactions
You can hover over an image result in the table to see its corresponding footprint highlighted in yellow on the search map. Select an image by clicking the check box in the row, which results in the corresponding footprint being highlighted in cyan on the search map. Each time an image is selected, it's added to the Queue panel. Additionally, you can click the top checkbox to select all the images to add to your queue.
The results table can also be sorted by a field in ascending or descending order. Click the field name to do this.
Preview an image
You can preview an image in the results table to further inspect the image in its natural perspective of how the image was captured during collection.
- In the results table, click the Preview Image button for an image.
A full resolution preview of the image appears, where you can inspect the image by zooming and panning.
- Optionally click the document button to view the metadata for this image. The metadata tray will expand.
- Optionally click Copy image metadata to clipboard to copy the image metadata to your
clipboard.
Note:
The metadata tray can be viewed in three sizes by clicking the expand button at the bottom of the tray. Clicking this button cycles through the three sizes. The middle size is the default.
- When you're finished inspecting the image, you can add it to the queue or connect to the canvas view.
- Click Close to close the image preview window.
View metadata
The metadata of each image can be viewed to gain a greater understanding of the image.
- In the results table, click the document button for an image.
The image metadata panel appears, and you can expand it to view information about the image.
- Click Close to close the image metadata panel.
