Customising Export files

Koordinates provides the ability to customise several data types to suit different needs. 

  • Raster data resolution
  • Include .TAB file for raster data use in MapInfo
  • Include or exclude geometry details in Vector data exported as a CSV
  • Rename the export zip file

From the Export page, the dataset details appear on the left hand-side of the window.

All data is sorted by different file types, to allow for easy identification and to configure specific data types.

Customise Raster data 

There are 2 cogs available to select.

a) global settings - applies to all data of this type in the export

b) dataset specific settings - applies only to that dataset 

Two options for raster will be available:

  • Downscale the resolution 
  • Include a .TAB file for use with MapInfo 

Set raster dataset resolution

1. Select the resolution

The resolution can be set to 

  • Original resolution
  • 1/2 resolution
  • 1/4 resolution

The specific resolution will be advised in the bracket.

2. The changes are applied

Once a change is applied, a label with the resolution type will appear on the bottom right of the dataset, and the configuration cog will have a green notification dot. 

Add .TAB for MapInfo

A .TAB file format enables more convenient use of a raster file in MapInfo.   

1. Open the configuration cog

2. Enable 'Include .TAB for MapInfo'

Once a change is applied, a label with '.TAB' will appear on the bottom right of the dataset, and the configuration cog will have a green notification dot. 

Multiple Raster files

If there are multiple raster datasets to be exported, it is possible to apply settings globally, or individually.

1. Select the global settings cog to apply to all data of this type in the export

2. Use the unique dataset configuration cog to apply changes to this dataset only

It is possible to have different settings for the datasets in the same export.

Exclude geometry column of CSV files

For Vector datasets that are being exported as CSV, it is possible to preserve or remove the geometry column. This simplifies that data that is being exported. 

1. Select the configuration cog

2. Choose to preserve or remove the geometry column

If the geometry column is removed, the size of the file will be reduced.

Rename Export zip file

Export .zips can have their filename changed before being exported.

The current name of the file is located underneath the crop map on the Export window.

1. Hover the mouse over the current file name. 

A rename button will appear on the right hand-side of the filename.

2. Select Rename

3. Type out the new filename and press Enter to save

Be sure to comply with standard file naming conventions, as incompatible characters aren't supported.
