Defining the clip region by selecting a file

You can use a smaller intersecting file to define the bounds of a subset. The Select a File Method requires two files. You use one file as input and the other to define the subset. The definition file must be smaller than the source file. The following procedures follow step 7 in Clipping and subsetting images.

  1. In the Define Clip Region area, choose Select a File from the Definition Method list box.
  2. Choose a file from the File list box. If the file is not listed, click Browse and choose a file from the File Selector window.
  3. Click Clip.
