Remove Depth Map (Data Management)

Available with Advanced license.

Summary

Removes the depth map from a mosaic dataset. Other than the depth map removal, the tool will not update the mosaic dataset.

Depth maps are created by running the Compute Depth Map tool.

Usage

• The input mosaic dataset is an adjusted mosaic dataset that has been augmented using the Compute Depth Map tool.

  Note:

  A depth map file (.dm) is created for each input image item comprising the adjusted mosaic dataset. The depth map file is created in the same directory as the source imagery files comprising the original adjusted mosaic dataset.

• Specify the .dm file to remove using an SQL query.

Parameters
