Imagery Workflow Management

In SuperMap ImageX Pro , an imagery workflow (abbreviated as workflow) refers to a GPA model built based on GPA tools. You can perform management operations such as creating, opening, executing, canceling, and saving workflows.

Only one imageryGPA can be created based on a predefined workflow in a workspace.

Creating a New Workflow

  1. In the Imagery tab -> Workflow Management group -> New dropdown menu, select the image type to be processed. Two types are provided: DOM Data Production and DSM/DEM Production Workflow, with DOM Data Production used as an example here.
  2. In the dialog box, select the process type. Two predefined workflows are provided: DOM Data Production and Dom data mosaic. Here, select DOM Data Production.
    • DOM Data Production: The entire process from processing raw remote sensing image data to finally producing Dom data.
    • Dom data mosaic: The process of merging orthophotos that have undergone geometric correction, registration, etc., through steps such as image fusion, image enhancement, and color balancing to produce the final output.
  3. Set the processing path: The directory used to store the workspace, data source, and GPA files.
  4. Set the workflow name: Set the name of the image processing flow. You can rename it according to project requirements.
  5. Set the map name: Set the map name associated with the image processing flow. After executing the workflow, the result data will be displayed in this map.
  6. Set the datasource name: Used to store intermediate and result datasets during data processing.
  7. After completing the above operations, click the OK button. The corresponding data source, workflow, and map will be automatically loaded in the current workspace for subsequent data processing operations.
Note:

After creating a workflow, you can set Parallel Count and Parallel Strategy parameters for data processing in Environment Variables.

Open Workflow

SuperMap ImageX Pro stores workflows as *.xml files. Click Imagery tab -> Workflow Management group -> Open button to select a local *.xml file, which will restore the saved workflow, image map window, and data in the imagery panel.

Execute Workflow

Use Imagery tab -> Workflow Management group -> Execute button to run the current workflow. For more execution methods, see Workflow Execution.

Cancel Workflow Execution

Use Imagery tab -> Workflow Management group -> Cancel button to terminate a running workflow.

Save Workflow

Click Imagery tab -> Workflow Management group -> Save button to save the current workflow, data in the imagery panel, and image map contents to a *.xml file. When reopening this file, you can retrieve all saved contents.
