CARIS Batch Utility : HIPS Processes : Update HIPS From Generic
 

Update HIPS From Generic

Description

The UpdateHIPSFromGeneric process uses a parser configuration (*.par) file created in the Generic Data Parser editor and updates or converts data into HIPS format using that configuration.

Update

One or more HIPS track lines.

Inputs

An ASCII file.

Outputs

Updated HIPS track lines.

Command Line Syntax

carisbatch --run UpdateHIPSFromGeneric

Options

The following table describes the parameters available for this process.

Parameter

 

Long

Short

Description

Can Repeat

Notes

 

--parser-file

P

The path to the parser configuration file. The file is setup to parse any sensor data (other than swath and sweep bathymetry and side scan imagery) from ASCII text files and then converted as updates on any line folders in an existing project.

FALSE

--input-crs

p

A string specifying the horizontal coordinate reference system key of the input.

The default value is LLDG.

FALSE

--extent

E

The extents that defines the window.

<LowerX> - A number specifying the lower left X origin in the coordinate reference system of the input.

<LowerY> - A number specifying the lower left Y origin in the coordinate reference system of the input.

<UpperX> - A number specifying the upper right X origin in the coordinate reference system of the input.

<UpperY> - A number specifying the upper right Y origin in the coordinate reference system of the input.

The unit is assumed to be that of the input's coordinate reference system, unless otherwise specified. When specifying units for un-projected data, an angle type unit is required. The order for un-projected coordinates is longitude followed by latitude. Supported units: cable, ch, cm, fm, ft, in, inm, km, m, mi, mm, nm, usfm, usft, usmi, usnm, usyd, yd, deg and rad.

FALSE

--filter

f

A number specifying the depths to a min/max range.

<FilterDepthMin> - The minimum depth values for converted data.

<FilterDepthMax> - The maximum depth values for converted data.

The valid range is +/- 15000.

FALSE

--filter-dup-navigation

If set, filters the navigation points to remove duplicate points during import.

FALSE

Example

To use this command, refer to the following example.

Example

Objective

To update or convert data into HIPS format using a parser file.

Description

Command Line Syntax

The parser file is named parser_file.par located at C:\.

--parser-file C:\parser_file.par

The input file is ASCII_line.txt located in at C:\.

C:\

The output file is C:\temp\input for the vessel named “sample” and the day 2000-001

C:\temp\input/ input.hips?Vessel=sample;Day=2000-001

Command Line

carisbatch -run UpdateHIPSFromGeneric --parser file C:\parser_file.par C:\ASCII_line.txt file:///C:/temp/input/input.hips?Vessel=sample;Day=2000-001

Outcome

Track line data is updated or converted to HIPS format using the parser file.
