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

+This page describes the desktop tool “Optimize”.
-This page describes the desktop additional tool “Optimize”.

+Drag & drop of a resource file that requires to be optimized for display will open this sidebar automatically.

-This tool is automatically launched when you drag & drop a supported point cloud storage format, different than OPC, in orbit.
 ===== Concepts =====
-"Optimize Data" optimizes one or more  [[dev:technology:supported_formats:index|supported resource files]] into a single Orbit optimized resource file. \\
+The Convert and Optimize Tools enable import, export, and data optimization of Reference Resources.
-"[[dev:desktop:tools:convert_data|Convert Data]]" converts any supported resources file into another supported resource file, one on one. \\
-Optimizing mobile mapping images to .omi files can be done using the desktop procedure [[dev:desktop_ext:mapping:manage:imagery|Optimize Imagery]]. This procedure is different from the "Optimize data" and "Convert data" tool, in that sense that there is an additional normalization process part of it.
+"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.
-===== Sidebar =====
+One sidebar to optimize supported Reference Resources of various types: Image, Vector, Point Cloud, and Mesh.
-One and the same sidebar is used to optimize Image, Vector and Point Cloud resources. \\
+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)).

   * 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.
-==== Target ====
+===== Source Options =====
-Set the target file and directory.
+Available when using a source directory:
-  * The source directory and filename are preset as default target file and 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.
-  * 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]].
-==== Options ====
+For point cloud LAS source files:
+  * Optionally ignore the LAS bounds from the LAS header to import points out of bounds.

+===== Target =====
-It is not possible to set the data type. The optimize tool generates the according Orbit optimized resource files [[dev:technology:supported_formats:image:omi|*.omi]], [[dev:technology:supported_formats:vector:ovt|*.ovt]] and [[dev:technology:supported_formats:pointcloud:opc|*.opc]].
