--compare | T | The type of HDCS data to compare. One of: • ALL: Compare all data. • BATHYMETRY: Compare bathymetry, includes observed and processed depths, slant range, TPU, tide, GPS tide, GPS height, RMS and sonar error. • NAVIGATION: Compare navigation, includes navigation and SSS navigation. • MOTION: Compare auxiliary data, includes gyro, heave, TrueHeave, pitch, roll, delta draft/subsea depth, speed over water, surface sound speed. • SIDESCAN: Compare stored side scan data, including beam amplitude, sidescan, processed sidescan, towfish height, towfish depth. The default value is ALL. | TRUE | |
--backscatter-precision | Tolerance to use when comparing backscatter values. The default value is 0.0000001. | FALSE | ||
--bathymetry-precision | Tolerance to use when comparing bathymetry values. The default value is 0.0000001. | FALSE | ||
--ignore-rejected | If set, rejected profiles are ignored for observed depths and processed depths. | FALSE | ||
--motion-precision | Tolerance to use when comparing motion values. The default value is 0.0000001. | FALSE | ||
--navigation-precision | Tolerance to use when comparing navigation values. The default value is 0.0000001. | FALSE | ||
--sidescan-precision | Tolerance to use when comparing sidescan values. The default value is 0.0000001. | FALSE | ||
--navigation-geometry | The type of Navigation Geometry to compare. • ALL: Compare all geometries. • SHIP: Compare ship line geometries. • TOWFISH: Compare towfish line geometries. The default value is no geometry to compare (not set). This is optional. Only applicable if Compare is set to ALL or NAVIGATION. | FALSE | ||

The input file is named input.hips and is located at C:\temp\input. The HIPS file URI filters for the vessel named “sample” and day 2000-001 and line Line_001.. | file:///C:/temp/input/input.hipsVessel=sample;Day=2000-001;Line=Line_001 | |
The reference file is named input.hips and is located at C:\temp\input. The HIPS file URI filters for the vessel named “sample” and day 2000-001 and line Line_002. | file:///C:/temp/input/input.hipsVessel=sample;Day=2000-001;Line=Line_002 | |
