 ====== Optimize Data ======

-This pages describes the desktop additional tool “Optimize”.
+Drag & drop of a resource file that requires to be optimized for display will open this sidebar automatically.

 ===== Concepts =====
-"Optimize Data" optimizes one or more  [[technology:supported_formats:index|supported resource files]] into a single Orbit native resource file. \\
+The Convert and Optimize Tools enable import, export, and data optimization of Reference Resources.
-"[[171:desktop:tools:convert_data|Convert Data]]" converts any supported resources file into another supported resource file, one on one. \\
-=====Sidebar=====
-===Data Type ===
-One and the same sidebar is used to convert Image, Vector and Point Cloud resources. \\
-Choose the type of data for conversion.
-===Source===
+"Optimize Data" optimizes one or more  [[dev:technology:supported_formats:index|supported resource files]] into a single Orbit-optimized resource file. \\
+"[[dev:desktop:tools:convert_data|Convert Data]]" converts any supported resources file into another supported resource file, one on one.
-Set the source file or the source directory. \\
+One sidebar to optimize supported Reference Resources of various types: Image, Vector, Point Cloud, and Mesh.
-When selecting a source directory, all supported resource files of the specified data type inside (for imagery it's not possible to select the file type) the selected source directory and, optionally, all its subfolders will be converted.
-Note for Point Cloud data. \\
+Optimizing original spherical images of mobile mapping resources to processed OMI images needs to be done using the "Optimize Imagery" procedure, see [[dev:desktop_ext:mapping:manage:imagery|Optimize Imagery]] ((Spherical mapping images are optimized and normalized, and this tool cannot be used)).
-The source CRS must be set. If the CRS cannot be derived from the resource headers or accompanied [[technology:supported_formats:other:ord|Ord file]] the [[technology:coordinate_systems:crs_orbit|Map CRS]] will be used.
-===Target===
+===== Source =====
-Set the target file. By default source name and location will be used as target.
-  * Add results to dataset list : Option to add the converted result files directly to the [[171:desktop:dataset:index|Dataset List]].
+Set the source file or the source directory.
-Note for Point Cloud data. \\
+  * When activating the option source file, it is possible to drag and drop the resource file inside the entry field.
-The target CRS must be set, by default the source CRS will be used as target.
+  * When using a source directory, all supported resource files of the specified data type inside the selected source directory and, optionally, its including subfolders will be optimized.
+  * For point cloud data, a source crs is required. If available, the CRS value is derived from the resource header or the accompanied [[dev:technology:supported_formats:other:ord|Ord file]], else the [[dev:technology:core:crs|Map CRS]] will set as default.
+===== Source Options =====
+Available when using a source directory:
+  * Select the file format of the source files to be optimized. \\ E.g.Filter a main directory of mapping runs to trajectory_simplified.ovt and all corresponding trajectory_simplified.ovt files will be optimized into a single target file.
-===Options===
+For point cloud LAS source files:
+  * Optionally ignore the LAS bounds from the LAS header to import points out of bounds.
-** Image data ** \\
+===== Target =====
-Options for Image data only.
-{{ :170:desktop:tools:optimize_data_image.png?nolink|}}
+Set the target file and directory.
-  *Pixel size : See [[technology:supported_formats:image:omi|Pixel Size]]
+  * The source directory and filename are preset as the default target file and directory.
+  * For point cloud data, a target CRS is required. The source CRS is preset as default.
+  * Optionally when processing is completed, add optimized resource automatically to the [[dev:desktop:dataset:index|dataset list]].
-  *Image Compression : See [[technology:supported_formats:image:omi|Image Compresion]]
+===== Target Options =====
-\\ \\ \\
+Available target options depend on the resource type
-** Point Cloud ** \\
+==== Image data ====
-Options for Point Cloud data only.
-{{ :170:desktop:tools:convert_data_point_160.png|}}
+Options for Image data, see [[dev:technology:supported_formats:image:omi]].
+  * Pixel size
+  * Image compression
+  * Threshold
-  *Strip Attributes : Options to remove some source attributes in target.
+==== Point Cloud ====
-  *Filter points : Option to filter point cloud to avoid extreme point density peaks and to obtain an overall homogeneous maximum point density.
+For options for Point Cloud data, see [[dev:technology:supported_formats:pointcloud:opc|]].
+  * Ascii source files
+  * Strip Attributes: Ignore attributes from the Source File when writing the Target file.
+  * Filtering: Retain one point per voxel.
+  * Classification: Ignore, import, or split the source point cloud by class.
+  * RGB Color
+  * Block Size
-  *Density : Option available for OPC only, see [[technology:supported_formats:pointcloud:opc|]].
+==== Mesh ====
+Download the [[external:ccgeneratelod|Plugin]] to optimize formats into Web-Ready 3D Scalable Mesh (.w3sm).
-=== Convert ===
+==== Convert ====
-Start convert or cancel ongoing process. \\
+Start process. \\
-Converted images are not removed when cancelling.
+Upon cancellation, the ongoing process will be interrupted, if possible the preliminary processed target files will be created.
