Getting Started Overview

This chapter describes the process for most compression and manipulation operations in GeoExpress.

To perform compression and manipulation operations, complete the following tasks:

1. Add images, LiDAR point clouds, or mosaics to the Job List. The images, point clouds, and mosaics that you want to compress or manipulate in GeoExpress are called jobs.
2. Select the jobs that you want to manipulate or compress.
3. Select an output format.
4. Select an output destination.
5. Specify how much you want to compress the job.
6. Optionally, for images and mosaics, perform image manipulation operations. For example, you might despeckle or reproject an image.
7. Optionally, set job options to specify additional options. For example, for raster images, you might change the resolution or create image tiles.
8. Optionally, preview the image or point cloud before running the job.
9. Optionally, for raster images, create a test image.
10. Run the job.
