Input File

Select an input raster from the drop-down list or browse to a file location to open the input raster. Then click the drop-down list and select the check box against the raster.

If a file is already open on the Map window, you can quickly create heatmap using one of the methods.

Output File

In the Output File box enter the name you want to specify for your output file. Click to browse to the location in your computer to save the .MRR file.

Heatmap Styles

You can apply any Heatmap style from this dialog.

  • Standard - This style produces a detailed density estimate with medium resolution output.
  • Detailed - This style produces focussed and detailed density estimates with high-resolution output.
  • Smooth - This style produces a broad and smooth density estimate with low-resolution output.
  • Optimal - This style produces a focussed and detailed density estimate with broad coverage and high-resolution output.

Area of Influence

Use the slider to set the area of influence.

The area of influence controls the resolution of the Heatmap. Use a smaller radius to reveal more details and higher resolution. Use a large area of influence to generate a smoother Heatmap. The area of influence also impacts the processing time of the calculation. Use a smaller area of influence to reduce the processing time.
