EAMS-Viewer
Viewer is the integrated graphics visualisation utility
for use with EAMS. It has the ability to view all files output or generated
by EAMS-Moscow and some limited capabilities for modifying them (by use
of EAMS-Virtual Earthworks).
Viewer Capabilities
- Plan view of any data or results from Moscow
- Three dimensional surface view of all results from Moscow
- Multiple windows and/or data sets open at the same time
- Ability to change the viewing point and colours of either of the plan
or surface views
- Inquiry routines to provide the statistics of the results (eg. slopes,
erosion rates, etc as provided by Moscow) for points or entire regions
- Ability to define and output regions for which different hydrology
or erosion parameters can be allocated for use by Moscow
- Integrated on-line help using Netscape and/or Internet Explorer
- Standard interface and help system across all platforms
Viewer has three types of windows
- The Main Window is displayed at
startup and controls the input, selection and display of data for viewing,
and viewing options. The general rule for options is that if that option
will affect the display in more than one window it will be controlled by
menus in the main window. If the option only affects one window then it
will be controlled by menus in that display window.
- The Plan Window display a plan
view of the selected data (selection is done in the main window). The data
inquiry and region selection capabilities are based here.
- The Surface Window displays
a perspective view of the selected data (selection is done in the main
window). There are no data inquiry or region selection capabilities here,
use the plan window for this.
