Saving the aggregate session

Aggregation is usually a lengthy process, especially if you want to test and compare several different aggregation scenarios. It is recommended that you use the Save Aggregate Session feature periodically to save your work.

You must save the details of your aggregate session in order to:

Save intermediate results.
Generate different aggregation scenarios.

From the Aggregate window, click Save.
In the Save Aggregate Session window, click File.
In the File Selector window, select a destination folder.
Type a file name in the File name box.
Choose a file extension from the Files of type box.
Click Open.
Click Accept.

Aggregate sessions are saved as .txt files by default. The following example shows a typical line in a saved aggregate text file.

1 | Rural | 0 | 204 | 0 |  | 3, 4

This aggregate line shows the following information:

Class value: 1
Class name: Rural
RGB color: Red-0 Green-204 Blue-0
Description: None
Input class codes: Classes 3 and 4 were combined to create the aggregate.
