Export Raster Product: Edit a Product Template

 

Tool

Product templates are used to export a surface and its metadata to multiple formats simultaneously. Templates also allow default property values to be defined for the selected output format.

Once created, product templates can be edited in the Edit Product Template dialog box, which is launched from the Export Raster Product tool.

Options

Description

Product name

The name to assign to the product template.

Components to include

The components you want included in the product template. The right side of the dialog box will not display any fields until a component is selected. The available components are:

Raster Surface and Raster Image formats, which provide the available output formats. Multiple output formats can be included in a single product template.

BAG Metadata and ISO19115, which allow you to define metadata for the exported file.

Clipping, which allows you to export only a portion of the source data.

Tiling, which allows you to export the source data as multiple tiles of a user-specified size, rather than a single large file. See Clipping and Tiling for more information.

At least one Raster format component must be included in the template. If the Clipping and Tiling components are included, they will be applied to all output formats generated by an export of the product template.

1. Click the check box of each component you want included in the template.

Properties

The properties for the selected component. The available properties will differ based on the selected component. Each time a property is selected, a brief description of the property is displayed below the list of properties. Values entered here are saved as default values for the product template.

Properties highlighted in red are mandatory when exporting, but can be left blank when creating a template. The highlighting will revert to the white background if a value is entered.
