Set Acquisition Date

Source file: set-acquisition-date.htm

You must set the acquisition date so that the surface change analyser (see Analyse Surface Change) can establish the relative ages of the surfaces being analysed.

1. On the Home ribbon tab, go to the Colour group and select Set Acquisition Date from the Distance from Objects drop-down.

   

2. Select the object to which the date is to be applied. It will automatically be added to the Object field.

3. Set the acquisition date by using one of the following two methods:

   • Associate the object with the scan from which it was created. Select Scan, then drag the related scan into the Scan field.
   • Set a Date manually. Select Date, then enter the date and time in their respective fields.

     Note:  The Date field includes a calendar drop-down for convenience.

4. Click OK or Apply.

   The report window will display a confirmation of the acquisition date set.
