Measurement in comparison to Overlays.

In Tygron Platform, a measurement is an item that allows users to record and inspect spatial data. Measurements can be positioned in the project map using the Measurement Tool and are applied to a grid overlay or to an attribute related to a specific grid overlay.

Measurements are accessible by

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Queries (Ribbon bar) → Measurements

Types

Currently three types of measurements are supported:

  • Point measurement, to inspect the value of a grid overlay for a specific location. Optionally displays values over time in case the overlay supports timeframes.
  • Line measurement, to inspect the variation in values of a grid overlay on the line drawn.
  • Object measurement, to inspect the value of an output attribute of a grid overlay related to that object. Optionally displays values over time in case the overlay supports timeframes.

Adding a measurement

Measurements can be added, inspected, imported and exported using the measuring tool. It is accessible in the navigation panel, by clicking on the icon above the overlay bar.
