Image Masking

This tool allows users to crop out sections from Orthomosaics, DSM, DTM, and Multispectral data products to remove unnecessary histogram data and hide unnecessary information from the Map view.

Getting Started

imgmasklayer

This recording has been edited for time. Image mask will take several minutes to generate. 

Contour layers are not available for masking.

  • Enable the data product and click on its corresponding Masking flag  maskingflag
  • Select the + symbol
  • Start drawing the polygon around the data product

Everything outside the polygon will be hidden from the Map view and ignored by the histogram.

  • Click on the first point to stop drawing and Submit the image mask

Please do not refresh the page if the loading bar is present because it will prevent the image mask from being created. The image mask will take several minutes to load.

  • Users can download the masked orthomosaic after creating the mask layer by selecting the Download option from the actions menudownloadactionmenu-1
  • Image mask layers can be deleted by selecting the Trash icon next to the Mask Image toggle

Please note that image mask layers will not be added to other map layers. Only multispectral maps with multiple index layers will share a mask layer.
